Esslingen’s Business Talk is a forum for senior executives, who wish to discuss important findings in business and practice. Initiated by MERITUS, this evening’s focus was on the future viability of our region: “Quo Vadis Neckartal?”
Our managing partner, Dr. Jens Zimmermann, already got to the heart of the auditorium’s concern in his opening speech: “The emerging megatrends such as electrification, autonomization, and the end of the classic combustion engine will change and shape the appearance of our region profoundly. This is due to its strong dependence on the automotive industry.” The only questions that remains is, “how?”.
The announced highlight of the evening was the impulse lecture by Prof. Jansen. The dynamics of the following discourse illustrated the personal consternation of the auditorium. All attendees joined into a lively discussion, raising questions, opinions and suggestions.
In short, the evening was filled with highly inspiring words, combined with a firework of thoughts, insights, emotions and proposals for our regionally based companies.
