If this year has taught us anything, it's that the technological revolution is moving faster than investors can keep pace with. Yahoo Finance wants to put you ahead of the curve with our new series, NEXT, premiering on September 8 at 10 a.m. ET. At a time when AI is creating billion-dollar companies out of thin air, automation is upending the future workforce, and semiconductors are becoming as important as oil — it's hard to know where to look. Our original series puts YOU in front of the trend and up close and personal with the people who matter — the leaders, inventors, and investors at the forefront of the most exciting period in the history of tech. Who's developing the next ChatGPT? Can anyone take on Netflix? Where is the big capital flowing? From venture capitalists to the nascent enterprises they're betting on ... we want YOU to know where innovation takes us next. Episode one zeroes in on the global smartphone battle. Samsung (005930.KS) and Apple (AAPL) are vying for dominance, but the South Korean tech giant is blazing a trail with its big bet on foldable phones. Yahoo Finance’s tech editor Dan Howley travels to Samsung's headquarters in South Korea for an inside glimpse at the tech titan's state-of-the-art facility, where it develops and manufactures its devices. In a behind-the-scenes adventure, we explore how the foldable line will shape mainstream tech. NEXT is the essential platform for today's investors and tomorrow's consumers.
