5. What technologies are
present in a smartphone
where we previously needed
different devices?

exponentially.
There will be new emerging
technologies that will turn
our economic system
upside down!

performance. The cost will
also be much more
predictable.

24. Yes but...
... You must also have bread on the shelf
... The world is not changing so fast, I am fine with it until I retire
... Technology is not for everyone
... Technology is not fun for everyone
...?

25. Change in thinking: Yes, and ...
... You must also have bread on the shelf
By living in other value systems you need less money and even food is shared
... The world is not changing so fast, I am fine with it until I retire
That's what they thought at Thomas Cook. Discover new possibilities and find a balance to bridge the
changes.
... Technology is not available for everyone
There is many open source available. Here in Permanent Future Lab it is shared.
... Technology is not fun for everyone
Innovation through technology occurs in every sector. Work from your intrinsic motivation and see how you
can make technology work for you.

26. Catalytic Thinking
It is important that we focus on thinking,
because it is not really actions that produce
results, but the thinking that is contained in
those actions - our assumptions and beliefs.

27. Catalytic Thinking
How do we change our thinking? By changing
the questions we ask. Change the questions
and we change everything.
The starting point is the human being.

30. And you?
?

31. Paradigm shift
Demand, supply = price due to scarce supply
Demand, supply = different price due to
abundance

32. Serendipity. In general you do not know what you will
expect back. It will be relevant!
● Someone who will expand your open source project
● a review that can yield a good reputation
● Access to products & services that others pay for with
money
● a paid assignment
● More abundance
