Dr. MANFRED HÜCKEL
Former CMO of redbull
What is important to you? The answer to this question is probably one of the most important, yet most difficult ones to find out. Think of the answer as evolving over time like a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly – the answer won’t just pop up, it will develop. To assist specifically young people to find answers and, thus, the things that really matter to them, Manfred, former CMO of Red Bull and founder of St. Gilgen International School , developed the Butterfly-Model that he will share with us on May 7th.
Prof. LENA PARTZSCH
sustainable governance expert
Do you know where all your clothes come from? Even if you think you know, you probably don’t. The least of us are aware of the complexity of global supply chains. This complexity brings along heavy burdens for the environment, but also for societies. However, alternatives are available. What these alternatives are and how more integrated governance frameworks could look like is going to be the topic of Lena, professor for environmental governance at Freiburg university and Freie Universität Berlin.
ROLF SCHRÖMGENS
Founder of Trivago
Successfully turning a start-up into a billion euro business comes along with many invaluable lessons, certainly on leadership. But what makes a great leader beyond the theoretical scope of academic concepts? Having gathered long time experience as founder and CEO of Trivago, Rolf now wants to share his most important lessons and explain, why current narratives of leadership might not grasp what it leadership actually all about, creating systems of service.
GESA LISCHKA
Neuromarketing expert
Have you ever bought a product after watching a compelling ad? And have you ever felt bad afterwards? Most of us would probably answer both questions with a “yes”. The manipulative power of marketing has gained wide-reaching criticism throughout the past decades. Gesa, CEO of Kochstrasse marketing agency, will offer interesting concepts that might save the face of marketing in the future.
CARL-PHILIPP VON POLHEIM
Founder of mybacs
We are what we eat – more precisely – we are what we absorb. The gut microbiome is one of the most important and sophisticated systems in our body making vital contributions to our health. That’s why Carl-Philipp and a couple of friends founded Mybacs, a start-up distributing small pills targeting your gut health. In his talk, he will touch upon the importance of small bacteria on our overall health.
