He says the answer lies in us, as we know more than we can say. Temporary monopolies will be created out of what we cannot say but only understand. And in order to avoid being just a “one-hit wonder” companies will need to maintain the monopolistic edge by transforming either by innovating or by buying innovation. “Keep looking for the answers” advised the futurist.

ABOUT a LECTURE:
At a time when the whole world lives in conditions of restrictions & crises, there are always those who, despite everything, turn challenges into opportunities, change their business, making it stronger; changes their lives, making it happier.
Articulate knowledge is information that can & has been digitized & tacit knowledge is all that what we know but cannot say, it is merely implied. Digitized articulate knowledge is where robot & man can work side by side whereas it is tacit knowledge that will create space for temporary monopolies.
He says the answer lies in us, as we know more than we can say. Temporary monopolies will be created out of what we cannot say but only understand. And in order to avoid being just a “one-hit wonder” companies will need to maintain the monopolistic edge by transforming either by innovating or by buying innovation. “Keep looking for the answers” advised the futurist.
Bringing it all together, Nordström asserts that any money making starts with a good idea, an idea which is simple yet powerful: a temporary monopoly. Only temporary monopolies will make money, he claims. “But where can we find temporary monopolies in this fast-changing digitized business climate?” & the answer lies in the type of knowledge: articulate vs. tacit.

QUOTES:
While few customer offerings have a life, all great products and services have a soul.
It’s not only music that goes funky. Politics does too. And so does business in the sense that it doesn’t always follow established principles. Of all the things that are happening now, we never know what will be important in the future.
Whenever we talk about making money, it boils down to monopolies. If you have a monopoly, you make money. I hate IKEA, but I will go there on Saturday – because we need beds for the children, and they have a monopoly. iPhone users shake like alcoholics if you tell them, you’ll get an Android instead.
It is also worth noting that it is extremely difficult to be a great buyer of complementary competencies if you do not have any knowledge about the stuff you are acquiring. Friedrich Nietzsche pointed out that a man has no ears for that to which experience has given him no access. We need knowledge to be able to outsource knowledge.
The 'surplus society' has a surplus of similar companies, employing similar people, with similar educational backgrounds, working in similar jobs, coming up with similar ideas, producing similar things, with similar prices and similar quality.
