The Fourth Industrial Revolution is here. We stand on the cusp of a technological revolution, one that will significantly and fundamentally evolve and change the way we live, work, and relate to one another. In its scale, scope, and complexity, this transformation enabled by digital and knowledge, will be unlike anything humankind has experienced before.
Emerging technology breakthroughs in fields such as artificial intelligence, robotics, the Internet of Things, autonomous vehicles, 3-D printing, nanotechnology, biotechnology, materials science, energy storage, and quantum computing and the fundamental possibility of billions of people around the world connected through mobile devices shall bring together the digital and physical world. Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality are no longer concepts, they are here. This blending of the physical and digital world is known as “Phygital”
The Phygital era presents a challenge, but more importantly also an immense opportunity for institutions looking to architect their student experiences across the lifecycle. From blending interaction channels for prospects, to leveraging immersive technologies for the classroom, or using personality and social data to create personalized experiences, the speakers will provide concepts, strategies, and real life case studies on blending the physical and digital worlds using big data, artificial intelligence, machine learning and foundational technologies like a student relationship management system powered through the Microsoft cloud and Open Data initiative to help an institution reach its enrolment, retention and graduation goals while enabling students for success.
