The Digital Economy During the COVID (Presentation for Rotary Club International) -  The Adaptive Economy

"Being now one of the youngest (techy) members of the Bangkok club; I’m sincerely humbled to be invited and will do my best to be useful. Starting today as this is maybe ironically my role to get you all online on Zoom for the « first online abduction meeting » :)

Today you all had a chance to see what is in my head, behind my funny haircut. I hope the content of the presentation was insightful & inspired you some new ideas for your family or your business to thrive in the next decade.

I tried to make this presentation interesting, focused on where my strength is: The digital world, and how to leverage its opportunities with some interesting insights & data points."

This is an incredible time to be human.

In this global turmoil situation, many people tend to forget this.

We are seeing things that never happened before in the entire history of our species.
Of course every day, we hear tales of first terrorism last decade, then climate change last 2 years, then now pandemic and new economic crisis…

So much that we often feel there is nothing we can do;

So it is easier to then give up on life and switch to autopilot mode, playing video games, watching Netflix or spending time on social media.

But perhaps there is some positive we don’t talk about, today.

So let’s look at the positives of today’s economy snapshot to start thinking:

“what can I do as an individual living in this 21st century to contribute to writing history, solve the planet’s problems and participate in giving our children an exciting world worth living in?”
