In this year’s adobo Festival of Ideas, we are taking a deeper look into what kind of innovations are disrupting the way we create, and how collaboration over competition is changing the way we do business.

There are billions of cogs that spin in this world, but we believe they fall under fifteen main sectors: Data & Technology, Sustainability, Education, Entertainment, Infrastructure, Food, Business, Science, Health, People, Mobile, Makers, Arts & Culture, Sound, and Media & Communications.

We believe all these sectors are innovating by forming unexpected connections, creating a new organism that can only be described as The Connectivity Economy.

Explore our sectors below:
