But how innovative are we? China and Southeast Asia are taking great strides towards becoming the world’s most important economic hubs. It remains to be seen what role Germany and Europe will play in the future world once their influence threatens to wane. One thing’s for sure: in order to keep their places at the top table, a lot’s got to change. We need to find out what and how. And we must ask ourselves whether we’re innovative enough, willing enough to take risks and make changes – or if we’re just too tired of the future already. How do we look to the coming years – and do we actually trust our political and economic structures?
With Rafael Laguna de la Vera, Director of the Federal Agency for Disruptive Innovation SPRIND, Ranga Yogeshwar will be discussing nothing less than the future viability of Germany and Europe.
Particularly exciting in this regard: how can the agency SPRIND, which acts like a public authority, be involved in the dynamic start-up scene?
Your opinion is wanted too! Bring your ideas, questions and impulses to the table – and let’s talk about the future of innovation together!
