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.

"Jarno gave a lecture at HKU about Synthetic Media: Artificial Creativity. Using many examples, Jarno showed what is possible in the fascinating world of deepfakes. Interesting and frightening at the same time, and enough food for thought. His lecture was received with great enthusiasm."

"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."
