About the Seminar

Prof. Kasper Meisner Nielsen from Copenhagen Business School and HKUST Business School will explore how rapid advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI), together with rising geopolitical risk, are reshaping company valuations and investor expectations across financial markets. Past technological shifts (dot‑com, crypto) and geopolitical shocks show how hype—and underreaction to external events—can produce inflated valuations.

By analyzing case studies of AI companies and examining market responses to rising geopolitical risk, Prof. Nielsen will also discuss the broader implications for financial markets and how investors can navigate these risks.
