The impact of digitization on business, people and society

Contact Jarno

 

My name is Jarno Duursma. Besides being a TEDx speaker, creator of the ‘Listening to the future’ podcast and founder of tech event SMC050, I also wrote four management books on digital technology. My two most recent reports are on Machines with Imagination and Deepfake Technology.

Besides books and reports I wrote articles for Emerce, Bright and Frankwatching. But you might also know me from national media or my opinion articles for the FD, NRC and De Volkskrant.

I like to reflect on the current and future impact of digital technology with optimism and a suitably critical eye. And with an eye for the human interest.

"I heard Jarno speak about Bitcoin and Blockchain at a Rabobank event. It is one of the best expositions I have ever heard on the basics of Bitcoin and Blockchain. Jarno was able to make the complex subject matter accessible to an audience not familiar with the principles."

"Sometimes you're lucky and by chance a speaker appears on your path who can playfully inject the necessary dynamics into your ICT quarterly meeting. Jarno not only highlighted the latest IT trends in a humorous way, but also sparked the necessary discussions about the bright and dark sights of ever-increasing automation. He even managed to make the link to our business operations and thus contributed to a successful afternoon."

"Attractive, clear and balanced - that's how I would characterize Jarno Duursma's lecture. Too often trendwatchers mainly promise golden mountains about the future. Jarno Duursma speaks inspiringly about future digital trends, but with the necessary critical reflection, and always with an eye for the human being."
