Electromobility is developing rapidly almost everywhere on the planet. Only Germany, measured against its size, is lagging behind. As a result, the shift towards simpler and more cost-effective individual mobility is not being recognized in Germany. On the other hand, despite their international orientation, this is deceiving German car manufacturers. However, there are very simple…
For some time now, I have been observing an increasingly negative attitude towards digital conferences among many people. Many people think they are boring, played by the same old phrase-mongers and yet they keep going back. Because you can meet people there that you otherwise only know from Twitter & LinkedIn. However, there are many…
Who would have thought it? The man who has become President of the United States by spouting half-truths and blatantly falsehoods seems to have become something of a “grindstone” on the way to a new self-confidence in the media.

The questions I am asked most often are undoubtedly those that revolve around the future disruption of industries. The upheavals in the music and film industry, in mobile telephony, in fashion retail and currently in the automotive sector are both interesting and tragic. And the pace is accelerating.
I am often asked where I find the time to pursue my various activities. Unfortunately, I don’t really have an answer. I don’t have the feeling that I do very much. Okay, it always depends on who you’re comparing yourself to. But I do indeed have a lot of time. Time to pursue different things….
