Futures Reimagined
Welcome to the NAVI world — where change is increasingly nonlinear, accelerated, volatile and interconnected. When faced with disruptive complexity, traditional responses are insufficient; thriving requires a radical shift in how we think and how we operate.
The EY Futures Reimagined framework provides a structured approach to navigate this complex landscape, empowering leaders to transform legacy practices and embrace resilience and growth. By examining the intricate web of the root causes of disruption — technology, geopolitics, sustainability, and demographics — the megatrends reshaping our future emerge.
In this EY Megatrends report, we explore the megatrends that should be on everyone’s radar, and where they intersect and converge. This is not an exhaustive list; rather it serves as a springboard for leaders to identify and analyze additional trends relevant to their unique circumstance.
For organizations, the implications of this new operating environment are profound. Leaders must cultivate the agency to rethink strategies and their approach to risk; innovate business and operating models; and transform talent management. The time for incremental change has passed; now is the moment to embrace a future-ready mindset that turns disruption into opportunity.
The full EY Megatrends report will be published in 2026. Dive into the first chapters exploring the human-machine hybrid era and discover how to navigate the NAVI world with clarity and confidence.
