Innovation
Sustainability does not require sacrifice
It’s not about doing without. Instead, it’s about doing things in a completely different way. Fewer “bad” materials and products will not save us. To shape and create a better future, we don’t require less of the bad but more of the good. Radical thinking and new methods are what we need — we need innovation rebels!

Artificial Intelligence
AI shouldn’t harm humanity
In the age of artificial intelligence, ethics need to be the priority and it’s the design discipline that bears this responsibility. As an interface between man and machine, it has a much greater role to play than most companies generally assume. Designers have increasingly been shaping processes as well.

Circular Design
More sustainability through digitization
The circular economy and circular design principles are of vital importance during the transformative process of becoming a more sustainable business. However, the complexity of our systems also calls for the application of technology and the use of artificial intelligence. The power of technology in this regard should not be underestimated.

“To build a more beautiful future we have to recode innovation”
10 years after the launch of my innovation company, I am ever more aware of my legacy. What we leave behind for the next generation should be more than just new products or services. More and better is no longer good enough, when the world is on fire.
Innovation for its own sake is a dead-end-street!
We are at an ecological, economic and social tipping point. And we are the last generation, that can save our planet. My answer to this fact is: Humane innovation

Are you interested to learn how innovation remains innovative and how humanity makes sustainable progress?
I invite you to subscribe to my newsletter. About once a quarter I will share news and thoughts from the world of digitization, AI & Co., and the resulting possibilities for humane de-sign in businesses and society.
Speaking Topics
Innovation against the powerlessness
Automation and artificial intelligence are changing the corporate reality but people should al-ways remember that they have agency. How can companies actively shape the digital trans-formation in the interest of their employees?
THE INNOVATION REBEL
Going “higher, faster, and further“ is not the solution. We need more freethinkers who boldly break existing rules—new innovators who will address/resolve the conflict between growth and sustainability.
Circular Economy & Behavioural Change
The world is on fire. Whilst a worldwide pandemic is turning our life upside down, we realize more than ever before: it is time for change.
If our daily work is in question, what does that mean with regard to innovation?
