The transformation of our economies through data and automation is in full swing. Workers, unions, businesses and policymakers are grappling with fundamental questions about what this transformation will mean for work in the future. While innovation and new business models have enjoyed much discussion and examination, workers and unions have not been featured prominently in the debates on the transformation of our economies and the transformation of work.

Our Trans-Atlantic Conference on Work and Workers of the Future will shift the attention to public policy and the co-creators of economic value: workers. The conference aims to fill the gap in these urgent debates.

Please mark your calendars for Oct. 3, 2019, to join leading voices as they present their ideas for shaping innovation, respond to data and the power of big tech, and look to the future of labor movements in the United States and Germany.
