Karl-Heinz Land: “Digital starts with people – and changing their perspective!”
Karl-Heinz Land has been living and shaping digitalization for 3 decades already and has actively followed the developments until today. The current events of the Corona crisis force us to an unprecedented standstill. The virus exposes the flaws in our system like through a burning glass. He has taken this as an opportunity to question our system in its entirety. In his new lecture “Standstill as Accelerator” he takes a close look at our social, political and above all economic goings-on and at the same time shows an exciting way out of our dilemma. Possibly this pandemic is a brutal, albeit necessary “Creative Destruction”.
Do you know what dangers and opportunities accompany the increasing digitalization of products and services? What power is inherent in social media and how they can undermine existing business models and endanger brands – but also help them achieve global success? Karl-Heinz Land not only talks about the impact of dematerialization on political, social and economic conditions, but also explains the redistribution of the world based on companies such as Uber, Airbnb and the “share economy”.
