How is Microsoft going to respond to innovation? „A clear strategy needs clear decisions.“
Dr. Christian Illek, head of Microsoft Germany, talked about how Microsoft is going to face the four new megatrends: mobile internet, cloud technology, big data and social communication. Enterprises have to expect dramatic changes in business models until 2020, especially in the telecommunications and media sector. "Who stands still, will fail, the future is about difference: think different, act different, make a difference". "Learn to act differently, don‘t always play the same flute“, says Illek.
The Microsoft Ventures Accelerator supports and coaches startups in Berlin, with the main goal of engaging with developers and the startup community and getting back there.
One big thing is the Internet of (every)thing(s), where machines are going to be able to learn from each other. We can either gain or lose a lot on the internet of things here in Germany. "9% of the companies use big data and 90% say it‘s important to use big data. If you think it‘s important, go move!“
