Here, three leaders speak about the next generation in wildfire-fighting – Sean Triplett of Earth Fire Alliance on satellite monitoring, Osmar Bambini of climatetech company Umgrauemeio on #AI detection and Felipe Borelli of RoboticsCats on converting everyday camera systems into souped-up #wildfire detection networks.

This AI-powered satellite constellation could revolutionize Earth observation

@Orbitworks-UAE plans to launch a 10-satellite constellation this year. Rather than capturing images in orbit and transmitting them back to Earth for analysis, the satellites will use #AI to process data in space. By identifying patterns and anomalies in real time, the satellites can enable immediate action.

Here, CEO Hamdullah Mohib explains how the technology works

By 2030, Earth observation technology could contribute $703 billion to global GDP.

Ghana just declared its first marine protected area

Source: World Economic Forum (video statements)

Almost 200 countries across the world have pledged to protect 30% of their ocean by 2030. But right now, there’s a lot of work to do, with just 10% of the global ocean protected.

#Ghana just took a big step forward with the establishment of the Greater Cape Three Points marine protected area.

The ocean reserve will protect coastal ecosystems rich in biodiversity, and in turn support fish stocks so that communities of fishers can sustain their livelihoods.

Friends of Ocean Action is a group of leaders from business, science and civil society who use their knowledge to help conserve the #ocean and sustainably manage marine resources. Tap the link in our bio to learn more.

02:30 – This NY academy trains teachers in AI: A new, first-of-its-kind project – a partnership between the AFT and Microsoft, Anthropic and OpenAI – aims to reset the relationship between #AI and #schools. The National Academy for AI Instruction – a bricks and mortar establishment based in New York – will train around 1 in 10 teachers in the US over the next 5 years. Here, Randi Weingarten, President of the American Federation of Teachers, introduces it.

Financial fragmentation: the $6 trillion cost of breaking the “plumbing” of global finance

Source: World Economic Forum (video statements)

The global economy is fragmenting, and it could lead to a hit of $6 trillion to GDP worldwide. That’s more than the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic or the 2008 financial crisis.

So what exactly is causing this fragmentation, and can the impacts be mitigated?

Finance industry experts join us to explore the forces of fragmentation and examine a new report by the World Economic Forum and Oliver Wyman, which quantifies its impact and details the consequences on the global economy and emerging markets in particular.

Guests:
Matt Strahan, Private Market Initiatives Lead at the World Economic Forum
Daniel Tannebaum, Global Anti-Financial Crime Practice Leader at Oliver Wyman
Anne Walsh, Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer of Guggenheim Partners
Daniel Mminele, Chairman of Nedbank

Financial System Fragmentation Quicktake with Matt Strahan

Source: World Economic Forum (video statements)

The global economy is fragmenting. And it could lead to a hit of $6 trillion to GDP worldwide.

#Finance is becoming a tool of geopolitical competition – through tariffs, sanctions and restrictions on payments and investment.

The result is a system under pressure.

But the worst outcomes are still avoidable. If governments and businesses act together, the global economy can stay connected and keep working for everyone.

In this video, Matt Strahan, who leads on financial markets and public policy at the World Economic Forum, breaks down the forces driving #fragmentation, the growing economic cost and what governments and businesses can still do to protect the system – and the people who depend on it.
