An Applied Futurist who has worked with some of the biggest brands in the world, including Unilever, BP, Cisco, Kellogg’s, PZ Cuzzons and LG, has been revealed as the keynote speaker at an exclusive forthcoming TheBusinessDesk.com event.
Tom Cheesewright will be sharing his knowledge at Business and Innovation: the future is now – an all-morning event to be held at Nottingham Contemporary from 8am until 11.30am on Wednesday 18 April. Tickets are free – but going fast – so book yours now.
Panel:
Tom Cheesewright, Futurist
Aaron Dicks, Managing Director – Impression
Dr Jeremy Hague, Head of Local and Economic Engagement – Nottingham Trent University
Guy Berwick – Head of Innovation and Delivery – Freeths
On his website, Tom says: “Applied Futurism is a response to a fast changing world. A world where existential threats appear on the near horizon, not from competitors but from unexpected sources. Where world-changing opportunities may pass you by every week, and only be recognised in hindsight. It’s a new way of doing business, based on better foresight and greater adaptability.
“An Applied Futurist can help you to see what’s coming, analyse that information, and act on it. I can help you and your organisation to be future-ready.”
Our panel will talk about how innovation, utilised correctly, can create value for a company – by driving revenues through new and existing channels, creating time and money and improving productivity.
This all-morning event will ask whether East Midlands companies are leading the way in innovation, whether or not there is a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach to innovation and discover the difference between invention and innovation.
