TECH by Handelsblatt 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐭. 𝐈𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐲. 💡 “𝘌𝘶𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘦 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘸𝘪𝘯.” What sounds obvious to me still didn’t seem obvious to some big automotive CEOs. Too bad… 😵 Sofie, Futurist.  💡 Capitalism is a great mechanism for efficiently building solutions the world needs. 𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘣𝘶𝘪𝘭𝘥𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘳𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦. Aidan, Cohere  💡 “𝘎𝘳𝘰𝘸𝘵𝘩 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦 𝘮𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘦𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘢𝘳𝘺 𝘳𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘯𝘰𝘸, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦.” How dare we speak of “great market opportunities”... Maja Göpel 🧠 I met many seriously impressive women. You inspire!! Karsten Wildberger's energy on stage was fascinating, even though I’m not sure whether the focus of his ministry is exactly the one I would have chosen... ❓ How can we prevent younger generations from suffering damaged human brain capacity in 10+ years, in a world increasingly shaped by AI? ❓ How will Europe keep up with launching its own satellites into orbit without solely depending on prices set by US companies? I could feel interesting momentum coming from Heilbronn and Schwarz Gruppe when it comes to European sovereignty and innovation. Keep going!! 🫶 ... and last but not least I really enjoyed spending time with successful, yet grounded founders. Dale + team, you did a great job! Thank you very much for inviting us personally. 💙 Michael Stock, Priscilla Schelp, Leo Marose, Johanna Wende, Lennard Schmidt, Moritz Zumpfort, Carmen Ziemek, Patrick Glaser, Michael Vetter, Marc Bürkle, Lisa Birringer, Thomas M.
