Description
In Homo digitalis, Thierry Geerts, CEO of Google Belgium and Luxembourg, looks at the dangers and opportunities of the digital revolution. Without taboos and with an eye to the future, he offers thoughtful examples of how digitalisation affects us as people and as a society. His conclusion is clear: technology is neutral, and it's up to people to use it consciously and confidently. If we do that, digitalisation will make us happier, with more time for creativity, personal development, healthcare, and the things that really matter. Then we'll become more human and we homo sapiens will turn into homo digitalis. AUTHOR: Thierry Geerts has been the head of Google Belgium and Luxembourg since 2011. He graduated from the VUB as a Solvay Business Engineer. He started working at VUM (now Mediahuis) where he held various management positions. SELLING POINTS: .
