Wie kann eine nachhaltige Zukunft aussehen?
Vor uns liegen anspruchsvolle Zeiten mit ökologischen, wirtschaftlichen, geopolitischen und sozialen Herausforderungen. Aber eine andere, bessere Welt ist möglich, wenn wir diese Krisen als Chancen begreifen.
Die Fähigkeit, kritisch zu denken und innovative Lösungen für Probleme zu visualisieren, ist die Grunddefinition von Designern. Design ist also weitaus mehr, als nur ästhetische Gestaltung. Unsere Gesellschaft braucht Akteur:innen mit diesen gestalterischen Fähigkeiten, denn es liegt an uns: Meistern wir die bevorstehenden Veränderungen, indem wir unsere Zukunft aktiv gestalten, also designen - oder resignieren wir und enden in einer Katastrophe?
Wir laden Sie ein, Expert:innen zu treffen, deren unkonventionelle Design-Ideen und Erfolgsgeschichten einen Wandel zur Nachhaltigkeit bewirken.
In unserer kommenden TEDx-Veranstaltung "Designing the future" bringen wir Unternehmer:innen, Erfinder:innen und Künstler:innen zusammen, damit sie uns von ihren Ideen erzählen.
Unsere Gäste sind:
TV-Moderatorin und Networking-Expertin Janine Steeger, Gründer und Business Angel Fridtjof Detzner, Künstlerin und Designerin Anne Duk Hee Jordan, Modedesignerin und Nachhaltigkeitsbotschafterin Magdalena Schaffrin und Verfahrenstechnikerin und Start-up-Gründerin Anne Lamp.
Seien Sie am 13. Dezember von 12.00 - 15.30 live dabei und lassen sich von den Talks über kreative Ideen, die unsere Zukunft gestalten, inspirieren.
Alle Vorträge sind auf Englisch.

ANNE DUK HEE JORDAN
lives and works in Berlin. She studied at the Weißensee Kunsthochschule Berlin and completed a Master in Fine Arts with Olafur Eliasson at the Institute for Spatial Experiments in Berlin. Her central themes are transience and transformation. She builds mechanical sculptures, integrates perfomance and creates immersive landscapes. Her sculptures are intended to sharpen the viewer's eye for the present and to open a dialogue between natural phenomena, philosophy and art. To this end, she shifts the focus away from humans
and towards the ecology as a whole.
Exhibitions at Hamburger Bahnhof Berlin, Kunsthaus Hamburg, balzer projects Basel, Nanjing/China, Tabakalera San Sebastian, etc. and many more.

FRIDTJOF DETZNER
founded his first company in 1999 at the age of 16: In 2007 it became Jimdo, a website construction kit which enabled more than 25 million people to create their own website. In 2017 he shot a ten-part TV documentary with “Deutsche Welle”: The idea was simple: travel 120 days through 10 Asian countries and choose one of the 17 UN sustainability goals.
What sounded nice at first turned out to be a life changing event for him.
After this trip, he decided to invest his time and resources solely in startups that are doing significantly better than today's economy. Together with like-minded people, he founded Planet A Ventures in 2020, where they provide venture capital to scientists and founders to work on an economy within planetary boundaries.

TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) ist eine gemeinnützige Organisation, die sich der Verbreitung von “Ideas Worth Spreading” verschrieben hat. Vor 30 Jahren als viertägige Konferenz in Kalifornien gestartet, hat sich TED zu einer unabhängigen Internet-Plattform für alle neugierigen und wissbegierigen Menschen rund um den Globus entwickelt. Die jährlichen TED-Konferenzen laden führende Denker*innen und Macher*innen aus aller Welt ein, um ihre Expertise, Ideen und Visionen mit der TED Community in maximal 15-minütigen Beiträgen zu teilen. Alle TED Talks werden aufgezeichnet und auf den TED Seiten veröffentlicht.
TEDx basiert auf dem Prinzip der TED Konferenzen. Es ein unabhängiges, ortsgebundenes Format für “Ideen, die es wert sind, verbreitet zu werden”. Diese lokalen, selbstorganisierten Veranstaltungen werden als TEDx bezeichnet, wobei “x” für eine unabhängig organisierte TED-Veranstaltung steht. Die Organisatoren sind verpflichtet, sich an das Format und die Richtlinien von TED zu halten.
