There is a phase change approaching is the way human society is organized, flipping from centralized hierarchical organizations chiefly represented by the nation states, towards more efficient, flexible, and resilient forms of decentralized, peer-to-peer structures, the Network Society. What traditionally we thought were functions that could only be organized centrally, from energy production and distribution, manufacturing and food production, finance, education, health are now being radically rethought as the guiding principles behind the technological evolution of innovations such as the Internet are now pervading everything.
Not only a novel interpretation of ongoing changes, but also a guiding set of principles to evaluate the degree at which new ideas are well aligned with the these unstoppable developments, the lessons of the Network Society can inform the decisions of individuals, corporations and policymakers to design future-aware action plans navigating times of turbulent change.
How do we communicate with trillions of machines? We don’t. It is up to them to find ways to aggregate the information they collect and present it in ways that humans can use. It is the duty of the localization industry to lead the development of guidelines for these interfaces that implement best practices for clarity, cross-cultural understanding, accessibility and usefulness worldwide. In this session we will present examples of how this can be achieved while preserving and enhancing the value of the localization industry and its participants.

The Transition from Print to Digital Publishing PART ONE: Signal & NoiseTed Hill
Presented at the US Government Publishing Office (GPO) Digital Publishing Symposium on June 17, 2015. PART ONE: Signal & Noise looks at why it's hard for book publishing professionals to truly understand the depth of the changes taking place around them.
This talk covers the future of brand and design innovation in an increasingly fragmented world. It\'s not a discussion on new or emerging technologies, but rather a conversation about new and emerging mindsets.

HELP-Technology Has Left Me In The DarkGina Schreck
The world is changing quickly and technology is the tool that is being used more and more to connect with employees, family members and customers. This presentation was done at the American Farm Bureau Federation's annual convention in Seattle, WA -January 2010.
We can no longer ignore it- and it doesn't have to be overwhelming. Whether you take the first step getting signed up for a Facebook account to connect with family members or you use a mobile phone or video camera to take pictures of your business to share, educate and engage customers, it's important to at least take ONE STEP. Remember version 1.0 is better than version 0.0--what are you waiting for?
Lean Startup- a primer for EntrepreneursJustin Pirie
An intro to the Lean Startup techniques that Entrepreneurs are using to improve the chances of success in taking tech startups to market.
Building on the work of Steve Blank, Eric Ries, Ash Maurya and Sean Ellis, this is a primer to set the scene for learning more about Lean Startups.
The Cloud is creating a “perfect storm” in the Channel business. A lot of the value Partners used to offer Customers is now available through the Cloud without them- Email, Collaboration, Storage and even Authentication!
Not only that, but the shift from traditional licenses, Cap-Ex and Maintenance revenue to Op-Ex or Subscription revenue is wreaking major havoc with profitability and cash flow. If your business is geared towards big, lumpy sales, with healthy margins, shifting to a smaller recurring income is going to disrupt the business model.
And because the technology is changing, to be less technical, with more technical detail abstracted away, the skills partners have been investing in for years are becoming obsolete. The people that provided that service aren’t needed anymore.
But I think the Channel is too quick to look to doom and gloom. They mustn’t forget their USP’s.
They’ve got great TRUST with real customers that pay them actual money.
The stuff Cloud providers CRAVE. They have in fact got a head start in the Cloud Business because the Economics of Cloud are so hard, as they’re discovering for themselves. But the reason Cloud Economics are hard is because it costs Cloud providers money to acquire customers. The Channel has the customers already. There is a perfect fit here if the channel can get to grips with the model.
So what does the Channel need to do to transform? Here is my top ten:
1. Construct a Portfolio of Cloud Services
2. Start eating their own Dog Food- using Cloud their own business
3. Sell Support for Cloud Services- It won’t fix itself
4. Add Services around Cloud- It won’t configure itself
5. Cross Sell, Up Sell- Keep that IT budget but deliver more
6. Do Due Diligence on Cloud Providers- They aren’t all the same
7. Guide Cloud in to Networks Safely- and securely
8. Start Delivering On-Ramp Cloud Services Today- because that is where demand is
9. Leverage On-Prem and Cloud for “Hybrid” Solutions- drive ROI with existing networks
10. Focus on Business Transformation- The future is less IT and more Business
As my good friend Anders Trolle-Schultz says- It’s no longer about “How IT” but “Why IT”.
This presentation is a traditional update to the regions technology investors and entrepreneurs I do every 6 months or so with the aim to bring out the current status of the ecosystem and bring out the main challenge ahead to take us further.

Mobile Monday Amsterdam: Free To Be Human!David Orban
Human civilization has advanced to the point that it cannot anymore allow itself to blindly stumble around in the world. If it wants to survive, it has to measure, collect, communicate, and act upon concrete data about nature, and its own technological creations. The Internet Of Things promises to bring this higher level of understanding the world to everybody, so that everybody can act upon it for the benefit of all.
The Evolving Data Sphere - David Orban - H+ Summit @ HarvardHumanity Plus

Advisor, Singularity University
Founder & Chief Evangelist, WideTag, Inc.
Intelligence Augmentation, Decision Power, And The Emerging Data Sphere
Human civilization depends on our ability to manage its increasing complexity. Behaviors, processes, and decisions that in the past were tolerated by the complex adaptive system we call Earth, are now more and more showing unforeseen consequences in unexpected places.
Many of our theories about the workings of the world are hampered in their predictive power by the lack of data, and suffer garbage-in, garbage-out effects. New interconnected sensor networks, fast, and ubiquitous communications, and the parallel power of our massive software systems are the never too soon answer to this need, and promise to revolutionize the way we understand, and act upon the planet.
The data sphere we are building, developing through every traceable action of millions of people, and billions, soon trillions of devices, designs a fine-grained picture of necessary understanding, and empowers us to believe that we can indeed aim to evolve our civilization, and to move it to the next levels of complexity, and achievement of human potential.
David Orban is an entrepreneur and visionary. He is Chairman of Humanity+, Advisor of the Singularity University, a Founder of WideTag, Inc., a high technology start-up company providing the infrastructure for an open Internet of Things. David shapes the strategic vision of its technologies by developing the policies and communication steps necessary to enable constructive progress. He is further a Scientific Advisory Board Member for the Lifeboat Foundation. David cuts across the limits of deep specialization to contribute to the new renaissance. He explains, “My vision is at the crossroads of technology and society as defined by their co-evolution.” David Orban’s personal motto is, “What is the question I should be asking?” This concept is his vehicle to accelerating cycles of invention and innovation in order to build the new world ahead.
Singularity University Spime Design WorkshopDavid Orban
What happens when we move from billions of mobile phones around us, to networks made of ten, one hundred or one thousand times more nodes? What are going to be the necessary features of these networks, which will constitute the Internet of Things? How can we think about, and must start planning for the nature of this new fundamental entity quickly emerging?
Summary
There has never been a time in the history of our species that has seen such innovation and rapid progress; and we have never been so confounded by the world we have realized! For sure, we have crossed the Rubicon from a linear past to a non-linear future and find ourselves lacking many of the basic tools we need to fully address the major problems confronting us.
In such an environment we have to prepared to be ‘unreasonable’, to challenge established wisdom, conventions and practices. So in this session, I present three challenging cases that do just that:
1) Wireless Spectrum: It is infinite and there is no bandwidth crisis!
2) Cyber Security: We need auto-immune systems aka biology
3) Information War: The biggest threat to the survival of our species

TEDx St Peter Port - How To Thrive In The Network SocietyDavid Orban
How will you thrive in a world of exponential technologies, where distributed and decentralized organizations are outcompeting centralized and hierarchical ones?
Talk delivered at TEDx St Peter Port on March 26, 2015, in Guernsey.
http://tedxstpeterport.com/
We are just at the start exploring the opportunities of the Internet, with 90% or more of the possibilities still unexplored! Over three billion new minds are soon going to connect to the global network. The challenges of decentralization and distribution of previously hierarchical and centralized functions are revolutionizing the design of services. The exponential technologies, with their characteristic unpredictability, are disrupting industries that previously thought themselves immune to the digital revolution. What are the strategies to be able to leverage the new waves of technology? How can we quickly revise experiments creating virtuous circles of evolution? In today's hyper-connected world there are no barriers to entry and the distance between idea and action is reduced to zero!
Exponentials and Networks - The Existential Challenge Of Radical Innovation For The Enterprise
Exponential technologies tend to take even the experts by surprise. The centralized and hierarchical organizations are under threat by nimbler and more resilient decentralized networks.
How can modern enterprises survive the combined challenges of technological and organizational innovation, internalizing the processes that make companies great and thrive?
"Ontological Cosmology: You Want To Live In A Universe With No Faster Than Light Travel" - There are things you shouldn't want, and FTL travel is one of them. Our reality is too precious to give it up, and the fractal boundaries of it deserve to be explored by more than boringly uniform Jupiter Brains whose computronium hunger swallowed up everything. How can we coexist with symbiotic AGIs and have fun together in an unbounded Universe?
Immune Reactions Against The Network SocietyDavid Orban
Low level stimulations of changing technologies are capable of provoking a reaction in the regulatory and policymaking bodies of the Nation States that are out of proportion with respect to their impact and effects. In analogy to allergic and immune reactions of the body, monitoring and managing these social reactions is essential for the planning of a healthy development of the technologies of the Network Society.
Network Society - The distributed social organization replacing the nation stateDavid Orban
A set of simultaneous technologies is growing exponentially, with the common feature of being decentralized, and organized in a network. This contrasts with the centralized and hierarchical organization of today's traditional society and its basic functions. The shift from the old to the new structure will subject the Nation State to an unprecedented pressure. The Network Society project creates a vision and analytical tools to allow individuals, enterprises and the society at large to deal positively with this unstoppable change.
Cryptocurrencies are profoundly disrupting the way payments, digital assets and applications around them are created, distributed, verified. Similarly to the introduction of HTTP and the web browser, which made the Internet accessible to all, Bitcoin as a protocol is spurring an unprecedented level of innovation in the fields of finance and payment technologies.
This talk is part of the TechPeaks Innovation series organized by TrentoRise. http://techpeaks.eu/
Thanks to the "Bitcoin and the Internet of Money" Facebook group founded by +Alex Lightman for allowing me to further my thinking on digital currencies and the future of finance.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/internetofmoney/
The talk will last for 30 minutes, to be followed by 30 minutes of questions and answers using the public live YouTube video's Q&A module as well as the questions from the local audience in Trento, Italy.
Human-Machine Coevolution
How to Thrive in an Era of Accelerating Technological Change
Keynote speech at the GALA 2013 Conference in Miami, FL.
In our global world of rapid technological change, the need for clear and deep communication has never been more urgent. Whether for personal interests or to implement professional services, today we have the opportunity to bridge the language barriers with computer based tools that complement our own knowledge and skills. Nobody is more exposed to this than professionals and enterprises in the localization industry, which broadly defined, is the bedrock of globalization. Being able to ride the incoming waves of change is a function of smart adaptation and adoption in a co-evolving, rich ecosystem of dynamic, flexible solutions.
Four technological pillars of societal change, transforming it from a centralized organization to a p2p network: solar energy, plantlab based food production, manufacturing through 3D printing, and p2p finance through Bitcoin.
Our Future Is Now - The Future of ComputingDavid Orban
The evolution of computing platforms, with the interaction of hardware, software, and interfaces, is extending the reach of the original formulation of Moore's law. 3D chips, quantum computing, speech recognition, gesture recognition, conversational interfaces are appearing, and create a necessary premise to the next generation of smart objects constituting the Internet of Things.
This presentation was delivered on May 3, 2012, in Milan, at the "Our Future Is Now" conference held by the Singularity University, with the organization and sponsorship of Intesa Sanpaolo.
The evolution of technology has always influenced our perception of reality. The acceleration of technological change today is having an unprecedented impact on how people live, work, learn, shop, socialize, and get entertained.
What we used to call computers, are now in our pockets, and we call them phones. Where are they going to go tomorrow? How are they going to shape our behavior, our relationships, desires, and opportunities?
In this talk, David Orban, futurist and visionary entrepreneur, CEO of dotSUB, the New York City startup leading the use of online video to eliminate the barriers to cross cultural communication, is going to share what are some of the new rules of that organizations can usefully employ as guidelines to cope with the onslaught of this forthcoming revolution.
The Future of Social Objects - Internetome ConferenceDavid Orban
What are the design principles that will drive the creation of the next generation of objects? When you can safely assume that not only ubiquitous, high bandwidth networked communications are available, but also that the behaviour of people has been already primed to understand, and almost empathically relate to realtime data collection, and feedback, entirely new classes of useful objects can emerge. Couple this with rapid prototyping, and the tight feedback loop of constantly measuring interaction, with its resulting utility, and what you’ll find is a radically different way of organizing the creation, distribution, use, and re-use of the manufactured world we live in.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
