Emma Arakelyan is invited to speak at the Young Business Club NYC virtual session with more than 50 entrepreneurs registered to talk about How to build a billion dollar company and how to leverage converging exponential technologies and organizational tools.

Emma will cover the concept of an Exponential Company is one as the one usin gnew organizational techniques by leveraging exponential technologies and whose impact (or output) is disproportionately large – at least 10X larger – compared to its peers. The foundation for the digitized economy is in 6Ds framework as Technology is developing at exponential rates, therefore transforming products and services, and disrupting industries. Singularity University methodology proposes what Google calls “Moonshot Thinking” where you try to go 10x bigger (10x cheaper, 10x faster, 10x cooler, etc.) than anyone else.

Exponential leaders have a massively transformative purpose (MTP) that drives them to overcome hardship and attract the best talent. An MTP is a “highly aspirational tagline” for an individual or group, like a company, organization, community, or social movement.

Emma will conclude with her Business Caring Formula concept of her book advising exponential leaders to establish their values of life and use them as a guide when innovating and building a success.
