GreetingsI hope you are well. It seems as if, since the U.S. presidential transition, things have calmed down a bit - at least when it comes to political dramas. That is certainly something I am thankful for;)Yet there are so many challenges affecting the world, with Covid-19, climate change, inequality, and the human challenges resulting from unfettered and exponential technological growth leading the way. So it is no coincidence that these existential risks/opportunities are the subject of my brand-new 2021 keynote talk (as well as an upcoming short film): "THE GOOD FUTURE - People, Planet, Purpose & Prosperity"; see below. *I know, it sounds ambitious... but bear with me.It is in that spirit and as the world struggles with vaccine distribution, rethinking capitalism (allegedly), debating that ominous great reset and geopolitical power games that I send you these snippets and links below, which I hope you enjoy. Because the one thing that always helps when addressing large issues is being informed, truly understanding and seeing how it all hangs together.So ...here's the best of what I've been looking at the past 7 days.Be safe and wellGreetings from ZurichGerd
