On October 29th, the Supercharge Tomorrow Summit will take place in Malta, bringing together some of the brightest minds in business and technology to explore groundbreaking strategies for future-proofing organisations. Hosted in collaboration with FutureWorld, AWS (Amazon Web Services), Malta Enterprise, Vistage Malta, Up Your Level, Go Business and GVZH Advocates, the event promises to challenge conventional thinking and equip leaders with the tools to build businesses that thrive in a rapidly evolving market landscape.

The vision behind the summit

At the heart of the Supercharge Tomorrow Summit is a paradigm shift in how businesses envision and plan for the future. According to Warren Bond, CEO and Co-Founder of FutureWorld in the Middle East, traditional business forecasting methods often fall short. Companies tend to project their existing strategies into the future, relying on their current business models, teams, and technologies to guide them forward.

This approach, Mr Bond argues, is fundamentally flawed. “We’ve spent 35 years working with governments and leading organisations, and we’ve found that future-proofing doesn’t work by dragging your current business into the future. Instead, it’s about leaping forward—imagining what your business could look like in five or even ten years and then working backwards to create a path that brings that vision to life,” Mr Bond explains.

What attendees can expect

The Supercharge Tomorrow Summit is designed to be a highly interactive experience, combining expert-led talks with hands-on workshops. The key aim is to empower leadership teams to envision their future business from a customer-first perspective, a method championed by AWS in its own product development process.

Through a blend of Future World’s future thinking approach and AWS’s “working backwards from customer” philosophy, attendees will learn how to:

  • Project future market conditions and identify what successful companies will look like in 5-10 years.
  • Prioritise customer needs by defining the key problems to solve, working backwards from the ideal customer experience to design products and services that are future-proof.
  • Collaboratively plan for the future, ensuring that leadership teams are aligned on the direction and the actionable steps required to make that future a reality.

Mr Bond highlights the practical nature of the summit: “This isn’t just a sit-and-listen event. Attendees will engage in ‘So What?’ workshops, where they’ll take the concepts discussed and immediately apply them to their business, making decisions about what their future organisation should look like and assigning real-world responsibilities to ensure those ideas come to fruition.”

The power of collaboration: AWS and FutureWorld

The collaboration with AWS adds a crucial dimension to the summit. Amazon’s methodology of “working backwards from the customer” is a key element of the day’s agenda. By understanding customer pain points and needs, businesses can avoid wasting resources on products or services that lack demand.

Mr Bond notes, “Many companies make the mistake of launching products that no one really wants. By adopting Amazon’s working-backwards process, attendees will learn how to create offerings that truly meet future customer demands. Combined with Future World’s forward-thinking strategies, this method provides a powerful roadmap for innovation.”

The Malta business landscape: Who should attend?

One of the key strengths of the summit is its applicability across industries. Whether attendees are from finance, technology, oil and gas, or small business sectors, the methodologies explored at the summit will offer valuable insights. The diverse business environment in Malta, in particular, provides the perfect backdrop for a cross-industry exchange of ideas.

“This summit is industry-agnostic,” Mr Bond assures. “We’ve worked with everyone from governments to tech startups, and the techniques we’ll cover are just as applicable to a small local business as they are to a global corporation. It’s all about understanding the future market and the future customer, and then designing the products and services that will meet those needs.”

Key takeaways: Future-proofing in action

The ultimate goal of the Supercharge Tomorrow Summit is to provide attendees with concrete, actionable outcomes. Leadership teams will leave with a clear set of new initiatives—whether that be an entirely new business model, a fresh product line, or innovative service offerings—rooted in a deep understanding of future trends and customer needs.

Moreover, Bond emphasises the emotional commitment that arises from this collaborative planning process: “When leadership teams spend a day not just talking about the future but actively designing it, they leave with a powerful sense of ownership and responsibility. These aren’t just ideas; they’re initiatives that teams are personally invested in making a reality.”

Join the movement: Supercharge your tomorrow

The Supercharge Tomorrow Summit is an unmissable opportunity for CEOs, C-suites, founders, and entrepreneurs to stop, reflect, and actively shape the future of their organisations. With a unique blend of forward-thinking strategy, customer-first product development, and hands-on collaboration, this event promises to ignite the spark that will future-proof businesses for years to come.

If you’re ready to lead your organisation into a new era of innovation and customer-centric growth, don’t miss this groundbreaking event.
