Fellow Digitals

Ronald van den Hoff (Utrecht) is a trend watcher, public speaker, and the founder of Seats2meet, active in 8 countries as a new kind of meeting, work, and conference space. Ronald has a clear vision on the changes in this society which he calls 'society 3.0.' He is the author of the book Society 3.0: a movement, a guiding light, and a change agent in our ever dynamic world.

"People of my generation sometimes say that they 'go online.' But online and offline are one world, you're constantly connected. We realize that we have a choice, you can create value and exchange knowledge in the office, at home, or in another environment. The so-called third spaces. It becomes a mix."

"The value chain is vulnerable and is going to disappear, I have always said. It is painfully clear through Corona where our weaknesses lie. All products come from China, when that stopped at the beginning of the year, even the German automotive industry came to a standstill. We need to organize this differently, with value networks. We need to make much more use of collective intelligence, share information and trust each other in this."
