The World Economic Forum’s Global Confidence Index shows very little confidence worldwide in the state of the global economy and in global governance over the next 12 months.
Over 1,000 global experts from the public and private sectors were surveyed; one-half of the respondents are pessimistic about the global economic outlook and one-quarter anticipates there will be an economic disruption during the next year. One in four say there is a lack of global leadership to deal with problems during this time and a majority fear a geopolitical as well as societal upheaval, according to the quarterly Global Confidence Index.
Perspectives outside the private sector were the most bearish with almost 54% of the respondents indicating that they are not confident in the state of the global economy; just over 40% expressed little confidence in the economy in the next 12 months.

Essentials of Automations: Optimizing FME Workflows with ParametersSafe Software
Are you looking to streamline your workflows and boost your projects’ efficiency? Do you find yourself searching for ways to add flexibility and control over your FME workflows? If so, you’re in the right place.
Join us for an insightful dive into the world of FME parameters, a critical element in optimizing workflow efficiency. This webinar marks the beginning of our three-part “Essentials of Automation” series. This first webinar is designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills to utilize parameters effectively: enhancing the flexibility, maintainability, and user control of your FME projects.
Here’s what you’ll gain:
- Essentials of FME Parameters: Understand the pivotal role of parameters, including Reader/Writer, Transformer, User, and FME Flow categories. Discover how they are the key to unlocking automation and optimization within your workflows.
- Practical Applications in FME Form: Delve into key user parameter types including choice, connections, and file URLs. Allow users to control how a workflow runs, making your workflows more reusable. Learn to import values and deliver the best user experience for your workflows while enhancing accuracy.
- Optimization Strategies in FME Flow: Explore the creation and strategic deployment of parameters in FME Flow, including the use of deployment and geometry parameters, to maximize workflow efficiency.
- Pro Tips for Success: Gain insights on parameterizing connections and leveraging new features like Conditional Visibility for clarity and simplicity.
We’ll wrap up with a glimpse into future webinars, followed by a Q&A session to address your specific questions surrounding this topic.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Augmented Reality is the idea of smoothly integrating media into someone's view of the physical world around them. For many people, this conjures images of science fiction films such as The Terminator and the heads up displays in modern video games.
In order to merge media with a person's view of the world, we need to know where they are, where direction they are looking and what they are looking at. Much of the early work in Augmented Reality used head-worn displays and custom-created hardware and software to track where everyone and everything was in the world around the user.
Today, instead of these expensive and one-of-kind systems, augmented reality experiences can be created with the smartphones that are in the hands, pockets and purses of millions of people around the world. Using just the sensors built into the phone, and perhaps analyzing the video from the camera, we can add graphics to this video and turn the phone into a kind of magic lens into an augmented world.
When done well, augmented reality experiences may seem magical, with virtual content appearing to be inserted seamlessly into the real world. Given the technology, then, the question before us is how to create useful and compelling experiences that would make it worth someone taking their phone out of their pocket, turning it on, and looking through it at the world around them.
Over the past twenty years, researchers have explored many possible uses of augmented reality, ranging from overlaying industrial or medical information on machinery and patients, to presenting battlespace information to soldiers or recreating cultural landmarks. Many of these task-focused systems will soon see real-world use, although many will not be practical on handheld smartphones.
The biggest area of potential growth for augmented reality on smartphones will be in consumer applications, especially those in the area of games, education, tourism, art and information access.
games is obvious. Putting content in the world
especially interesting are social. Better than wii, kinect
Perhaps one day have games where you interact with seemingly intellgent virtual characters. In AR/Facade, we put players in an apartment in the middle of a drama.
Eduation; kids, math, the natural world
Insitu education, especially when it's needed. Condom game is about teaching people proper use, using the package, so they can learn when they get them.
Tourism: re-creations of historic sites. Lots of efforts to help folks re-live the past.
My question to you is this: when you think about your own companies or populations, what are the situations where there is real value to having information appear to be out in the world around them?
