Countries around the world are competing for global leadership in the life sciences by supporting breakthrough research as well as the production of key assets, from vaccines to medical devices and tools for digital health. As new challenges—such as a global pandemic—test global cooperation, local actions are increasingly likely to shape the future of work in the life sciences around the world. What innovation(s) in the biotech industry offer the greatest promise for economic growth and job creation? Should communities offer tax incentives or government subsidies to attract private investment? What do they need to do to train the next generation of biotech professionals? And how can communities create new job opportunities for under-served populations?

'Maximizing the Potential of Human Capital Around the World' is a joint webinar series from The Milken Institute and Enquire that focuses on the future of work. In the twenty-first century, the world is increasingly connected by digital technologies but also increasingly decentralized into communities with unique identities. Our organizations each believe that global prosperity and sustainable economic growth are fueled by understanding these trends and preparing for how they change the nature of jobs. Our webinar series is therefore designed to bring leading practitioners and thinkers together address some of the most pressing questions on the future of work.
