xCHANGE 2025 explored the ideas and forces shaping business today. Inspired by the power of cross-pollination - like bees in a meadow, we thrive when we move between disciplines, gathering insights and sparking ideas. This year's event brought together diverse perspectives - from law and technology to creativity and commerce - to ignite fresh thinking.
Some insights tackled everyday business challenges; others opened doors to new possibilities. One theme stood out: disruption is the baseline.
