发言全文如下： 全球商业趋势是一个非常有趣且复杂的话题。今天我们谈论的"趋势"并非仅指最新潮、最酷炫的技术产 品，而是回溯那些真正改变世界的"颠覆性创新"历程。其实，"技术颠覆"并不是新鲜词，从公元前5000 年啤酒的酿造，到面包的普及促进了早期贸易，人类历史中的许多发明都曾深刻改变社会运行方式。而 我认为影响最深远的一次"创新拐点"出现在1450年印刷术的诞生，它极大提升了信息的记录与传播效 率，催生了随后的知识与技术爆炸。我们现在所处的时代，正如当年印刷术出现那样，是又一个变革性 拐点——信息的生成、存储和共享方式正以前所未有的速度发生演进。尤其对你们"Z世代"而言，这一 浪潮既充满挑战，也蕴含无限机遇。 来源：环球网 2025年5月8日，由中国公共外交协会、环球网、上海交通大学、同济大学、澳门大学、北京外国语大学 共同主办的第二期全球名校"Z世代"领袖连线活动举办。澳大利亚蒙纳士大学Paul Murphy教授在讲座中 指出：我们正处于信息革命的又一重大转折点，新技术驱动的系统性变革正在重塑社会结构与产业生 态，而Z世代正站在引领变革的前沿。 新型钠电池正在兴起，还有低毒、低易燃性、更环保的锂电池改进版本 ...
