I looked up the founding dates of the 30 companies that currently make up the Dow. 19 of them (making up 56% of the index) were founded before 1975, and the other 11 (44%) afterwards.
The DOW itself was only 4.5% of it’s 2015 (nominal) value in 1975
About 10⁄30 of the companies that were in the DOW in 1976 are still major economic drivers today
So, overall, I’d guess 50% of GDP in 2060 will be from companies that exist on January 1, 2022 (using 2020 as a baseline year is all sorts of fraught)
