Disruptive technologies have demonstrated their ability to drive completely new business models as they displace earlier technologies. SwissCham ihas invited the members of FBCS to visit Fudan University and is cordially inviting you to explore different case studies of how disruptive technologies have affected business practices as a means of developing an intuition for how technology can change societal and business landscapes.

There will be a convergence of markets and industry as technologies blurs the lines that define conventional geographies, economies, industries, products and even private and business lives. As new technologies become accepted, companies will have the opportunity to exploit new revenue models and eventually whole new markets will be created as conventional business models are antiquated.

Big Data and business intelligence will enable organizations to gather quantifiable data on each area of the organization and analyze it in a way that yields information they can act on. These data analytics can help them enhance strategic decision-making, improve performance, mitigate risk and oftentimes even create new business models. This will create hyper competition in almost every field, and to the disruption and realignment of many industries.
