Keynotes
Keynote by Stefan Hyttfors: How to Understand the Future
We cannot predict the future exactly, but we can analyze trends, explore possible scenarios, and prepare ourselves to navigate a world of rapid change.
After nearly 80 years of relative stability, we now find ourselves in a time marked by volatility and unpredictability, where challenges and opportunities follow one another at breakneck speed.
In this environment, leadership is absolutely crucial. Change benefits those who are prepared and dare to act, and leaves behind those who are unprepared.
Keynote by Stefan Hyttfors: AI Changes Our Relationship to Ourselves
AI tops the list of trends that affect everyone. We face many challenging questions but also fantastic opportunities.
Beyond all the buzzwords and hype, we can already glimpse an entirely new world where everyone suddenly has access to knowledge that no one has had before.
Leaders who believe technology exists solely for efficiency are overtaken by those who see technology as foundational.
Keynote by Stefan Hyttfors: Geopolitics in a World Without Leader
When the United States turns its focus inwards, and threats around us are growing, the European continent is forced to reprioritize militarily, industrially, and culturally.
Something new emerges from the crisis; independence and resilience are the foundations for a new version of globalization.
The story of what Europe was like in the past is overshadowed by enthusiasm and collaboration for a new golden age. It's a unique opportunity.
Keynote by Stefan Hyttfors: Sustainability Is the New Path to Growth
We are going to rebuild the entire society—everything created by seven generations—within a single generation. If you don't see this as the opportunity of the century, you suffer from a severe lack of entrepreneurial genes.
What was considered a problem only ten years ago is now seen as the greatest business opportunity of a lifetime. Strategic sustainability is the growth model of a new era.
Keynote by Stefan Hyttfors: The Future of Work: Create Tomorrow's Workplace Today
In a world transformed by technological advancements and behavioral changes from Generation Z and Alpha, boundaries are redefined, and the perception of what constitutes work is changing.
The question centers on leadership rather than where employees are located. It's not enough to try to keep up; an attractive employer leads the development.
