Gerd Leonhard, a futurist CEO, gave a keynote at CommunicAsia2016 about balancing digital transformation with human ethics. While technology is growing exponentially, humans are linear, so its impact on jobs and decision-making needs oversight. Telcos must serve customers happily rather than just efficiency, using algorithms and AI ethically. Digital transformation requires abandoning old business models to provide experiences and platforms, not just infrastructure. The future should benefit humanity with emotions and purpose, embracing technology but not being controlled by it.
This document discusses emerging technologies and their potential impacts. It begins by noting that while technology progress is often emphasized, the social and cultural impacts are also important to consider. Several key technologies are then summarized, including smartphones and their dominance, the internet of things, digital transformation of businesses, 3D printing, robotics like self-driving cars, augmented and virtual reality, and machine learning. While the future possibilities seem vast, challenges like inequality and the environment remain, though optimism about abundance through technologies is expressed.
The Maker Movement began in the early 2000s as a resurgence of do-it-yourself creativity fueled by new technologies like 3D printing and Arduino boards. Makers now number in the millions as people rediscover the satisfaction of making physical objects with their own hands. New low-cost tools and online communities have lowered barriers to entry, empowering a new generation of innovators and shifting production away from large corporations. The Maker Movement promises significant economic and social benefits by transforming industries, democratizing innovation, and inspiring self-sufficiency.

Happy Morning I have made a small attempt to summarize this book after reading this number of times. In this book Salim Ismail gives a deep dive – Exponential Organizations where he shows how any company, from Startup to a multi-national , can become exponential. The author unveils years of research learning how organizations can accelerate growth through use of Technology. The goal of the book is to provide you with the knowledge to leverage assets such as big data, communities, algorithms, and new technology to achieve performance ten times better than your competition. It is good book for entrepreneurs who need a guide for harnessing and strategizing the hyper growth of a company that feeds off of modern technology in the 21st century and beyond. Because we focus on accelerating technologies and the future we identified an infection point in how we build businesses that has never noticed before. Most CEOs see innovation as product or service innovation. But there is also process innovation, social innovation, organizational innovation, management innovation, business model innovation etc. Those business that do not evolve , will not survive Happy Reading

This was my presentation at UXNZ (http://www.uxnewzealand.com/) in November of 2015. The focus was on the diverse opportunities that IoT holds for UX, industrial and service designers, and how they need to move beyond screen to make the most of its potential. The talk draws on observations from client work at DNA, my own work at Northwards Design Studio and hosting the IoT Wellington Meetup. SYNOPSIS: Chris Jackson has a dream. It’s a dream where intelligent devices of all types communicate clearly with each other, CEOs see past their outdated business models, and user experience designers are freed from the confines of designing for the screen. At UXNZ, Chris is going to share his dream. He’ll talk about the potential of a new Internet of Things (IoT) and how user experience designers are well placed to help make this dream a reality. Please excuse the links to video, the original presentation was too large to upload on slideshare with embedded video. I also talk without notes, but hopefully it's simple enough to follow. I am hoping video will appear at some point from the conference organisers.
In this update of his past presentations on Mobile Eating the World -- delivered most recently at The Guardian's Changing Media Summit -- a16z’s Benedict Evans takes us through how technology is universal through mobile. How mobile is not a subset of the internet anymore. And how mobile (and accompanying trends of cloud and AI) is also driving new productivity tools. In fact, mobile -- which encompasses everything from drones to cars -- is everything.

The document outlines a workshop on implementing responsible design principles for Internet of Things (IoT) products. It begins with introductions and an explanation of why the workshop is being held - to identify design challenges in the IoT world and develop practical guidelines for promoting responsible design. The workshop agenda is then outlined and includes breaking into groups to conceptualize an IoT-enabled pressure cooker concept and refining it using the 10 principles of the IoT Design Manifesto.
Anner Dieter and Holly Robbins held an workshop to work on the IoT Design Manifesto. ThingsCon Amsterdam 2015 was held at Volkshotel December 4, 2015
The document summarizes a workshop about connecting circular economy principles with internet of things technologies. The workshop consisted of two rounds: 1. The first round involved breaking into groups to discuss four design principles for internet-connected products: aiming for win-win outcomes for all stakeholders, making parties and data flows explicit, empowering users, and designing for the lifetime of the product. 2. The second round had groups "mashing up" product ideas using the design principles and then presenting their concepts to the full workshop. The overall goal was to explore how circular economy and internet of things concepts could be combined to change the nature of products and business models in a more sustainable way.
