Software won - so what now?
You guys have won. Software is eating the world. You are the emperors and are cutting through and reinventing industries one by one. Let's think what comes next. What should your minds and skills be focused on now in order to solve bigger, meaningful problems that beset us? And how can you lead the world into an era of abundance, of iterative trouble-shooting, of optimal management of our resources - in order to generate the greatest happiness for the greatest number?

Culture hacking and the coming era of magnificence
A culture is the set of shared attitudes, values, goals, and practices that describes a group. Our era is increasingly characterized by an emergent “software culture".
Culture hacking is itself a distinct kind of culture engineering. Good culture hacking will tend to protect personal freedom and extend openness. As our many cultures become hacked we will grow enormously in effectiveness, and ambition.
This will lead to an era of widespread and abundant greatness, an era of magnificence.

The Rebels Come Out Online - What if the Internet is something much bigger than we think?
"What if the Internet is something much bigger than we think?"
Alexander Bard is one of the world's leading internet social theorists and the author of "The Futurica Trilogy" together with Jan Söderqvist. In this speech he will elaborate on the fact that out of all the codes and other digital information we stuff our machines with, something much more profound, something sentient, is emerging. The internet controls us, and possesses opur imagination and worldview, rather than the other way round.
Alexander Bard
Having made a habit of lecturing dressed in haute couture shorts and an impressive fin de siècle beard, scribbling his notes on huge whiteboards rather than parading just another predictable power-point presentation, the larger-than-life Alexander Bard's simultaneously entertaining and earth-shattering lectures have consistently topped the ratings at major business and management conferences around the world. And as any good speaker does, Bard takes pride in practicing the message he preaches.
Friday
8.30-9.45

Have spent the last 15 years to develop the "perfect" BSS/OSS to empower the build out of "Fiber to All". Jonas Birgersson will share some experiences from his adventures in IT/Telecom & more importantly gaming.

From Collective Intelligence to Collaborative Creation
Hojun Song is a tech-obsessed installation artist who is trying to advance both art and usable technology. In a fun keynote Hojun will share his rebellious experience from his most recent project: building and launching a satellite.

Hojun Song thinks it's time to have a private connection between us and universe.
