December 2020 Reflections, Reports, and Updates with Year-Ahead Partnerships, Events, and Summits in 2021

By Janice Dru-Bennett

The last two weeks, I've shared updates around the Currnt SmartGroups with the latest reports from expert panels on "The Global Work-from-Home Experience: Trends, Tools and Best Practices" as well as "Enabling Growth with Sustainability & Philanthropy" to create a better future for humanity through partnerships. Upcoming and past events are hosted on the NexTech AR platforms, as well as with the Visionary Access Network.

For example, the discussion on "Remote Work has Not Helped All Companies Gain Optimum Productivity and Revenue" presented how some industries have had more significant declines due to consumer demand shifts as well as increased mental health and well-being challenges.

2020 has been a year of tragedy with the loss of family members, loved ones, pets, and jobs. We expect to continue to face challenging health conditions, economic difficulties and other stresses in 2021; however, we also anticipate new opportunities with hybrid events and stronger partnerships for global resilience with the World Economic Forum, United Nations, and partnerships across multiple platforms as well as new technologies such as events powered by NexTech's Augmented Reality platforms.
