Officials with the Thunderbird School of Global Management at ASU had a busy time at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland last month.

For one thing, the school released a report estimating the economic benefits of climate restoration in the trillions of dollars. It also helped lead a conversation about developing rules of the road for technologies of the so-called “Fourth Industrial Revolution” — which covers areas like machine learning and artificial intelligence, the internet of things and blockchain, among others.

Sanjeev Khagram is director-general and dean of the Thunderbird School of Global Management. He joined The Show to talk about the opportunities in both of these areas.
