About Andrew Keen

Keen’s new book, How to Fix the Future, based on research, analysis, and Keen’s own reporting in America and around the world, showcases global solutions for our digital predicament. Keen identifies five broad strategies to tackle the digital future: competitive innovation, government regulation, consumer choice, social responsibility by business leaders, and education. How to Fix the Future has been called “the most significant work so far in an emerging body of literature…in which technology’s smartest thinkers are raising alarm bells about the state of the Internet, and laying groundwork for how to fix it”

About the Utopia for Beginners event

The Utopia for Beginners events were held in order to discuss pressing questions and problems in IT. With over 250 IT Executives we explored new ways to innovate in a purposeful way. The input came from 14 inspiring keynotes given by academics, thought leaders and business leaders and was used in several round table discussions to learn from peers in the same and different industries. We summarized these valuable insights in our report ‘Utopia for Executives’ which you can download here.
