Beijing, China — Digital energy is breaking down barriers between sectors and generations, turning today’s youth culture into tomorrow’s mainstream, according to Vikram Channa, Vice President and Head of Content for Greater China and Southeast Asia at Warner Bros. Discovery.
Speaking at the Beijing Global Civilization Dialogue, Channa highlighted the transformative power of digital platforms in uniting people from diverse backgrounds. “Digital power is dissolving boundaries of sector and age,” he said. “It’s bringing people together in ways we couldn’t have imagined before.”
Channa emphasized the significant role of youth in shaping the future, noting that their culture is rapidly becoming the new mainstream due to the pervasive reach of digital media. “Youth culture is no longer on the fringes; it’s at the center of global conversations,” he remarked.
He also raised critical questions about sustaining this momentum. “How do we scale this momentum and tackle the communication gaps between fields?” Channa asked, urging stakeholders to find innovative ways to bridge divides and foster collaboration.
The Beijing Global Civilization Dialogue gathered thought leaders from around the world to discuss the impact of digital technology on society. Participants explored strategies to leverage digital tools for cultural exchange and mutual understanding.
Channa’s insights resonate with a growing recognition of the digital realm’s potential to unite people. As digital platforms continue to evolve, they offer unprecedented opportunities for cross-cultural engagement and global connectivity.
The challenge, according to Channa, lies in harnessing this potential to address existing gaps. “We need to find ways to bring different fields together, to communicate effectively across disciplines,” he said. “Only then can we truly realize the unifying power of digital energy.”
