The Quantum Economy

The Old Economy is dead. So is the New Economy

Algorithms are increasingly becoming authorities and competing directly with humans. Recommendation engines have long taken control of our lives. We are threatened by a final narcissistic injury, and we are alienated by the fatal information society that we live in. But humans are still the 'gluons' that connect our perceived reality – the environment, society, and the economy – with our inner world: what it means to be a human being, a Mensch. If we want to ensure that the machines continue to serve us after the digital tsunami, then now is the time to leverage the full power of our reason to build a humanistic society.

"A must-read for anyone who does not just want to see the future, but

wants to be an active part of it."

Marshall Goldsmith, Two-time Thinkers 50 #1 Leadership Thinker

"Anders Indset's thought-provoking new book is a must-read, and one I wish I had read prior to the outbreak of the pandemic."

Dorie Clark, author of "Reinventing You" and Member of Executive Education Faculty Duke University Fuqua School of Business. 

"The Quantum Economy is a highly timely and truly relevant book. This new

world – with Covid-19 and all the panic following it – begs us all to

redefine how we live and how we do business. A must read for anyone in

search for meaning in how to run businesses." 

Martin Lindstrom, New York Times best-selling author of Small Data and Buyology

"The quantum economy opens up new perspectives on the economy of today

and tomorrow - and on how our economy affects society. An inspirational

reading that stimulates discussion and leaves a lasting impression."

Yves Pigneur, Professor of Management Information Systems, University of Lausanne
