Conditie: Als nieuw

Most people don't really want the future, they want today to go on unchanging for the next fifty years. This is not going to happen. In the next fifty years humanity will experience more change than we have in the last 5,000 years. The current economic world crisis, which will come to be known as The Great Stagnation, will give rise to the greatest innovations ever. The world population is growing by 6 million per month. Worldwide, the middle classes are growing. With rising oil and other commodity prices the limits on the old ways of doing business are becoming clear. Visionary companies which want to operate in a future-proof way should consider the Megatrends which will change business dramatically. Robotics, miniaturization, virtualization and cloud computing are changing the ways in which companies operate. Adjiedj Bakas writes vividly about his inspiring vision of the future.
Adjiedj Bakas (1963) is a highly acclaimed trendwatcher, author and speaker. He researches social, cultural, economic, technological and spiritual trends and interprets these for an array of clients. He lectures about 200 times per year for businesses including Apple, Credit Suisse, Philips, Air France KLM, DSM, Google, Microsoft, Shell, ING, Nike, Rabobank, ABN AMRO, PWC , KPMG, Cisco, Deloitte, E&Y, Lexus and BMW. He has written a number of books about the future which have been published to acclaim in several different languages and in countries as diverse as Brazil, The Netherlands, China and Sweden. His books have sold more than 600,000 copies worldwide.
With a preface by former European Commissioner Frits Bolkestein and columns by H.M. Queen Maxima of the Netherlands, ex-Dutch prime minister Wim Kok, former Dutch Central Bank President Nout Wellink and many others.
