Take on Tomorrow

• Could robots be renovating our homes in the future?

  What if we completely rethought the way we build? What if the places where we live and work helped cut emissions, and we could drastically improve energy efficiency with a new kind of construction? What if most construction wasn’t even done on-site? These changes, some of them already underway today by businesses establishing new kinds of partnerships, are redefining an age-old industry. In this episode of our special Take on Tomorrow series, hosts Lizzie O’Leary and Femi Oke speak to Emanuel Heisenberg, CEO and founder of Ecoworks, about how adding a “second skin” to existing structures could revolutionize their use in ways that are good for the planet and the pocketbook. Plus, Greg Oberti, a partner in Capital Projects & Infrastructure at PwC Canada, explains the kinds of cross-industry partnerships being forged and how new opportunities are taking shape that will create value in the decade ahead.

• How will personalized health data transform the way we care?

  People need to be cared for—but the way we approach healthcare treatments hasn’t changed much in recent years. Now, in the age of AI, and with the emergence of more collaborative partnerships, we’re seeing a shift. And it brings a new opportunity for providers to make effective, affordable, preventative, and personalized care a priority—the kind of care that puts the patient at the center. In this episode of our special Take on Tomorrow series, hosts Lizzie O’Leary and Femi Oke talk to Ali Hashemi, health-tech investor and cofounder and CEO of meta[bolic], to explore how this approach to holistic and efficient care is transforming the treatment of diabetes and other metabolic diseases. Meanwhile, India Hardy, Global Health Industries Partner with PwC UK, shares insight into the field’s unique possibilities and what’s driving the need to reinvent how we care in the decade ahead.

• Could your car power your home?

  The way we power society is transforming, and it’s not happening in a silo. As energy demand and geopolitical tensions both rise, and the shift toward new ways to fuel and power our lives picks up speed, how should businesses rethink the opportunities and challenges ahead? Where can they find new value? And what could the world look like with more collaboration and innovative solutions that have never been tried before? In this episode of our special Take on Tomorrow series, hosts Lizzie O’Leary and Femi Oke talk with Thomas Raffeiner, CEO and founder of The Mobility House, a technology company using a new solution to power cars—and the grid itself—that may completely change how we move. Plus, Jeroen van Hoof, PwC’s Global Energy, Utilities & Resources Leader, from PwC Netherlands, tells us about the paths that businesses and society can open when they think about new ways of working—and moving—together.

• Introducing a special series of Take on Tomorrow

  This special series of Take on Tomorrow, PwC’s award-winning podcast, unpacks how the global economy will change over the decade ahead and what that means for business and society. We’ll explore how business will navigate—and shape—the challenges and opportunities ahead, including emerging technology, climate impacts, and new ways of collaborating across industries. Though basic human needs will stay the same, the way they’re met—by business, government, and others—will rapidly evolve. We look at distinct domains, each centered around a fundamental and universal human need: how we move, how we make and build things, how we feed and care for ourselves, and how we fuel and power society, as well as the way governments, capital, and technology will enable this industry reconfiguration. Along the way, we’ll meet the innovators driving the efforts to tackle society’s greatest challenges and learn how businesses can capture the value that’s in motion and the exponential possibilities that come with it.
