It was an ordinary moment inside a not-so-ordinary hospital, with the elevator lights blinking slightly as it hummed to the oncology wing. Two floors up, a young patient was having a machine learning-powered non-invasive diagnostic scan that detected early abnormalities in lung tissue weeks before symptoms could have raised concerns. We no longer observe the advancement…
Countries are rethinking their capital deployment and attraction strategies. Once passive wealth stores, strategic funds are being remarkably repurposed to build long-term resilience. Building economic barriers against supply shocks, rival alliances, and unanticipated disruptions is important, not just for GDP figures. The tone of cabinet meetings has changed in recent months in a variety of…
Inheritance discussions used to feel intimate and private, held at kitchen tables in whispered tones. However, the public’s awareness of numbers has grown recently, and families, economists, and policymakers are all paying more attention. Trillions of dollars are about to change hands across the United States, and it’s not happening equally. Up to $124 trillion…
Beneath the surface, counties and townships are experiencing a remarkably similar phenomenon: municipalities are reconsidering how they fund, oversee, and construct the infrastructure that sustains daily life. Plans that are both realistic and surprisingly creative are being used to quietly rebuild the foundations of modern life, such as water systems, sewer lines, and treatment plants….
Infrastructure may still be represented by steel and concrete, but fiber-optic cables and bustling data halls are now the beating heart of investment. With data centers alone consuming $61 billion in 2025, capital poured into digital infrastructure at an incredible rate, primarily to meet the growing demand for artificial intelligence.

A big change quietly began on a late fall morning in Schaumburg, Illinois, in a small boardroom with fluorescent lights and folders ringed with coffee.

Veterinary leaders have united across state lines and specialties over the past year…
Technology and automation have transformed workforce planning across health care settings, including long-term care facilities. If your organization is still relying on manual assignment methods, it may be time to move toward intelligent solutions. The right platform delegates shifts and accounts for employee qualifications, certifications, and skill mix to ensure appropriate coverage of senior staff,…
A quiet confidence is returning to some of the most neglected areas of the world’s markets across financial capitals, from Singapore to Zurich. A new wave of investment is now flowing into frontier economies, which were previously written off as being too risky, too illiquid, or too unstable. With a longer horizon and a sharper…
Last spring, a group of ethicists and researchers assembled at the Francis Crick Institute on a chilly London morning, bearing the responsibility of making choices that could influence medicine for years to come. Fairness was the main focus, not just science. Many people refer to the treatments they discussed as revolutionary. Once limited to science…
