How we Build

The Build domain is transforming. Driven by climate change, urbanisation and AI advancements, industries are coming together in new ways to revolutionise how we design, construct and manage structures and cities. Engineering, construction, finance and real estate companies are forging partnerships to create spaces that are more resilient, efficient and tech-savvy. Collaboration across sectors is opening up new opportunities—from venture capital investments in property tech and energy efficiency to integrating smart home solutions and sustainable infrastructure. For Australia, the Build domain offers an opportunity to accelerate urban development, modernise infrastructure, and strengthen climate resilience across cities and regions. As businesses rework their models, the Build domain is set to add $13.76 trillion to global GDP by 2035, with more than half of this growth ($7.44 trillion) coming from Asia Pacific.

How we Feed

The formation of the Feed domain represents a pivotal shift in the global agri-food system—one driven by the need to nourish a growing population while enhancing resilience and sustainability. Climate challenges, scarce resources and food waste are pushing businesses to rethink food production, processing and consumption. With agriculture, technology, logistics and finance sectors joining forces, firms are embedding AI, mechanisation and eco-friendly practices to increase efficiency and cut environmental impact. For Australia, this means using advanced technologies and innovation to boost productivity, cut waste, and enhance climate resilience—strengthening food security and export competitiveness in a changing global market. As these changes gain momentum, the Feed domain could add $9.88 trillion to global GDP by 2035. AI advancements and climate adaptation efforts are steering this growth. 

How we Care

The Care domain is in the midst of a major transformation—healthcare organisations are adopting AI, digital platforms and cross-sector collaboration to deliver more effective, affordable and personalised care. With ageing populations, rising chronic disease costs and tech advancements as catalysts, pharmaceutical, medtech and digital health firms are weaving predictive analytics, telemedicine and wearable devices into their approach to enhance patient outcomes. This move toward holistic healthcare solutions is set to blur traditional industry lines. AI-led innovation and climate-related healthcare challenges are critical forces driving this change. In Australia this includes adopting proactive, continuous care models powered by technology. This shift towards holistic healthcare solutions is expected to reshape traditional industry boundaries, with the Care domain projected to contribute $9.31 trillion to global GDP.

How we Move

The Move domain is transforming as mobility leaders adopt clean tech, AI, and digital solutions to boost transportation's efficiency, sustainability, and affordability. Traditional sectors—like automotive, logistics, rail, air and sea—are changing through cross-sector collaboration. Emerging tech players are integrating electrification, autonomous vehicles, and circular business models. This evolving ecosystem, propelled by climate needs and tech disruption, is poised to add $5.86 trillion to global GDP by 2035, with Asia Pacific driving nearly half ($2.45 trillion) of this growth. Its path is being forged by AI advancements, changing mobility preferences and sustainability-driven innovation.  

This shift offers a chance for Australia to lead in developing clean and smart transport solutions that address unique mobility challenges, positioning the country at the forefront of the future mobility landscape.

How we Fuel and Power

The Fuel and Power domain is undergoing a major shift as the global energy sector responds to climate imperatives, technological progress and increasing demand. Traditional fossil fuel chains are integrating zero-carbon electricity, alternative fuels and AI-driven efficiency solutions—ensuring energy access while backing industrial growth. As transportation, homes and industries transition towards electrification and low-carbon options, collaboration between established and new players is driving innovations in storage, transmission and sustainability. For Australia, the Fuel and Power domain presents a generational opportunity to lead in clean energy exports, decarbonise domestic industries, and build a more resilient, tech-enabled energy system. Guided by AI and climate action, the Fuel and Power domain is expected to add $6.19 trillion to global GDP by 2035, with Asia Pacific fueling more than one third of this growth.  

How we Govern and Serve

The Govern and Serve domain is evolving as governments work with industries to tackle shifting global demands sparked by climate change, AI and demographic shifts. Public institutions are key players in fostering innovation—from supporting resilient infrastructure and smart cities to nurturing sustainable materials and AI-powered healthcare. As sectors reshape, governments are crafting policy, advancing public-private partnerships and using technology to boost citizens’ well-being and economic prosperity. In Australia, this means rethinking service delivery—through smart infrastructure, AI-powered public health, and data-driven policy—to build a more inclusive, resilient and future-ready nation. By 2035, this domain could add $17.42 trillion to global GDP, with roughly one third of this ($6 trillion) coming from Asia Pacific, spurred by AI-driven efficiencies, climate adaptation and changing regulatory frameworks.

How we Fund and Insure

The Fund and Insure domain is changing as industries realign around human needs, opening new doors for financial services and capital allocation. With businesses crossing sector boundaries, financial firms need to adapt—creating new risk models, valuation approaches and investment strategies. Partnerships between traditional financial players and non-financial firms are transforming capital deployment, management and insurance, fostering efficient growth models. Australia’s financial institutions have a critical role to play in shaping the next decade by reassessing capital allocation, deployment, and risk management. As climate change and AI disrupt the financial landscape and as capital flows increase significantly across public and private markets, banks, super funds, and insurers will need to adapt their strategies accordingly. Over the next 10 years the Fund and Insure domain is set to boost global GDP to $17.04 trillion, with more than one quarter of this growth ($5.14 trillion) coming from Asia Pacific—offering fresh routes for value creation in our evolving economy.

How we Connect and Compute

The Connect and Compute domain is a driving force for cross-sector collaboration, fueled by tech disruption and AI-enabled innovation. As industries embed computing power and connectivity into their models, companies from tech, telecom, energy, manufacturing, finance and government are joining forces to create seamless solutions. From smart infrastructure and advanced data centres to AI-powered services and semiconductor breakthroughs, partnerships are unlocking new sources of value. This presents a strategic opportunity for Australia to scale digital infrastructure, grow capability in data and semiconductors, and enable the smart systems powering our future economy. With climate and technological megatrends shaping its trajectory, the Connect and Compute domain is set to play a pivotal role in the global economy, with its contribution projected to fluctuate based on evolving industry needs and advancements between now and 2035.
