For decades, the systems that underpin work — benefits, healthcare, and financial stability — were built around a single assumption: one job, one employer, one steady income. That assumption is breaking. Today, millions of Americans earn across multiple roles, platforms, and income streams — a structural shift often referred to as the "microshifting workforce." But the systems designed to support them haven't kept up. As this shift accelerates, the gaps are becoming harder to ignore: lost coverage, fragmented care, and systems that weren't designed for movement. At the same time, new technologies, particularly AI, are beginning to reshape how individuals navigate fragmented systems, manage care, and coordinate across multiple sources of income. Join us for a conversation with leaders Ellyn Shook, former CHRO of Accenture; Susan Podlogar, former CHRO of MetLife; and Tim Massa, EVP and CHRO of Kroger. Moderated by Bradley Tusk, founder and CEO of Tusk Ventures, with Felix W. Ortiz III, founder and CEO of Smirk Health. This panel brings together leaders across tech, healthcare, and the future of work to explore what happens when foundational systems fall out of sync—and what's being built to replace them. This event is a part of #NYTechWeek — a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com.
