DEF 2023 Keynote by Richard Yonck in Seoul, South Korea.

 

We’ve reached the stage in our technological evolution as a society that we need to become much more methodical and conscientious about how we innovate. The rapid adoption of new technologies, often before their implications are well understood, will continue to result in difficult, even wicked challenges, for ourselves and future generations.

Thank you to organizers Korea Startup Forum and the Korea Ministry of Economy and Finance for inviting me to keynote DEF2023 – the sixth Digital Economy Forum, with a look at how we might innovate innovation in the future.

I really appreciated the conversations and insights shared throughout the day, with other speakers and attendees alike.
