Scenario prompts 6 October 2023; have a great weekend
Ron Immink
I empower people by crafting compelling visions for the future, driving the creation of innovative business models, boosting productivity, and enhancing profitability. Advisor, mentor, author and speaker.
Scenario prompts are the first step of strategy development. Topics to consider are desalination, printing neural cells, longevity and climate tech start ups, bio-printing using stem cells, nano enhanced biomaterials, bio printing skin, an electronic tongue, vegetable butcher shops, avatars, morphing robots and my blog about “The Experience Machine: How Our Minds Predict and Shape Reality”.
Have a great weekend.
