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.

"The webinar on the power of technology in times of corona is really recommended. Jarno Duursma takes you through the (im)possibilities that technology offers in these corona times in his typical, catchy way.

"For the first edition of our online digital marketing event at Achmea, Jarno gave a lecture on synthetic media and deepfakes. Jarno conveys the message with a lot of energy and makes the subject very accessible, also for colleagues who have little digital knowledge. With the help of striking examples you are completely taken into the world of this new technology."
