DEPT® Trends 2024: Connectedness, Creativity & Culture
What to expect
The rise of AI (and Barbie), Apple’s Mother Nature Impact Report, the economic slowdown, U2 in the sphere… We all know that a lot can happen in a year. And while no one can predict the future, we’re still going to try.
Join us in shaping the future of digital as we explore the trends across culture, creativity, gaming, business, and technology that are defining the year ahead.
Even within our fragmented, algorithmically-defined niches, we will be more connected than ever before in 2024. From the battle between creatives and AI, to the emergence of a data-driven economy, to the impact of global elections and events, we’re covering it all.
Rethink. Reimagine. Refocus. And prepare for the exciting and challenging times ahead alongside the most future-forward leaders, creatives, technologists, marketers, and digital consumers.
