It's time to reveal Schibsted Future Report 2023
How can we spur innovation when times are tough? Will crypto survive the winter and revolutionise our trading system? And what will happen if China really wins the tech war?
Schibsted’s Future Report is our annual outlook on trends within tech, people and business, where employees across Schibsted’s family of digital brands contribute to boil down the most important ideas and insights for the coming year. The focus for this year’s report is “Innovating in tough times” – something we are used to within our family of digital brands. How does Schibsted meet and handle the speed of change in the world of tech, innovation and business?
“I think the most important thing is to recognise the difference between cyclical and structural changes. Think of it as the difference between a storm and climate change: A storm will pass, while climate change is a lasting and fundamental form of change," says Schibsted CEO, Kristin Skogen Lund.
“In Schibsted, we have always tried to view rough seas as an opportunity, whether made rougher due to passing storms, climate change, or both. Because the thing about rough seas is that so long as you have a good ship, are well-prepared, have all hands on-deck, and truly know how to navigate – rough seas are an opportunity for speed, distance and discovery.”
When we launch the report today at the startup community Mesh in Oslo and via livestream, we’ll host an assortment of Schibsted people to share their knowledge on working within innovation.
