Le Boudir X gannaca
Fashion & Technology in times of crisis? As we have seen, since the beginning of the Covid-19 crisis: virtuality has flourished in fashion and luxury, fashion weeks platforms have become digitalized around the world, presentations have become digitalized, storytelling is immersive. This is far from a trivial observation. So, as Christopher Peterka observes, if “the appropriate use of technology in the fashion industry increases its importance as a voice, in our societal discussion about what we want as a future”, what does this voice tell us? In the “Le Boudoir Numérique X gannaca series” Episode 1, our CIO Christopher discusses this with Mila Chan and Chibi Mila, the virtual journalists of the Digital Boudoir. “Le Boudoir Numérique X gannaca” is a new series of interviews on the future of fashion tech in collaboration with our dear friend and advisory board member Ludmilla Intravia, journalist and editor-in-chief of Le Boudoir Numérique, a digital magazine deciphering the impact of technology, innovation and digital on fashion and beauty. Discover the video of the first episode here.

RP Symposium 2021
Last week we told you about the production of the 2021 symposium “Highlights of modern medicine – live healthy – stay healthy” of the Forum Future Medicine. The goal of the event: current, medical knowledge explained in a way that everyone can understand. The media production, which was carried out at Rudas Studios Düsseldorf, is intended to help allay patients’ fears by providing them with better information about innovative treatment methods. Panel discussions were held on various aspects, such as immunotherapy in oncology or the use of artificial intelligence in cardiology, which were moderated by our CIO Christopher Peterka. As if the direct exchange with affected patients in times of the pandemic were not hurdle enough – the preparation and execution of such a production is an art in itself. All the more beautiful when the result (from June 11 on www.forum-zukunftsmedizin.de) is right and also gives us at gannaca the feeling for a small moment that we have arrived back in the pre/post C19 everyday life. We would like to thank the Rheinische Post and Pia Kemper for this.

Symposium 2021
This was also the case recently at the Symposium 2021 “Highlights of modern medicine – live healthy – stay healthy”. The media production, which was carried out at the Rudas Studios in Düsseldorf, is intended to help allay patients’ fears by providing them with better information about innovative treatment methods. Panel discussions were held on various aspects, such as immunotherapy in oncology or the use of artificial intelligence in cardiology, which were moderated by our CIO Christopher Peterka. Christopher especially appreciated the support of the symposium by the Lord Mayor of Düsseldorf, Dr. Stephan Keller, as patron. Dr. Keller would like to further strengthen the healthcare location in the next five years and, for example, establish a healthcare campus.

“gannaca is about 10 years ahead of the energy industry. We benefit a lot from this in our cooperation.” – Profit? That sounds particularly bright in the ears of Germany’s entrepreneurs in Corona times. And indeed: energy generation, storage, distribution and management are a huge topic for every medium-sized company. Because in 2021, computing power will cost next to nothing, decentralized solutions will be more in demand than ever, and only with creativity and decisiveness can resilience be developed for the continuing pandemic. So: who wants again, who is not yet climate neutral, self-sufficient and smart in their energy regime?

2020 Farewell
2020 is as good as checked off. In a few hours, this wonderfully symmetrical year will be history. Many can’t wait, having found this year a big slap in the face. We at gannaca are thankful for 2020, because this year has indeed ensured more symmetry: Whereas we had previously apostrophized from stages and videos that we would all sooner or later end up in a much messier, more uncomfortable and more exhausting world, because we mostly worked past the actual challenges with the prevailing systems and structures, this mostly remained very abstract for many. Today, many know what we meant because they feel it – triggered by the pandemic: VUCA – a state of constant volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity has become everyday life.
CHANGE and INNOVATION will remain our guardrails at gannaca in 2021 on a highway to the future that now has so many lanes that we can put horsepower on the road, from one-on-one coaching for executives to strategy consulting to technology development for publicly traded companies. The decisive part in this traction, besides tons of experience, extensive network, deep knowledge and still great curiosity, are our great customers, our agile partners, our inspiring Advisory Board and of course our hard-working and motivated employees. We would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your constant commitment! Here’s to a healthy and meaningful 2021 in every respect!

Forum Zukunftsmedizin
Rheinische Post Forum
Im Forum Zukunftsmedizin der Rheinischen Post trafen sich am 27. November Experten aus den Bereichen Medizin, Pharmakologie, Theologie, Versicherung und Wirtschaft, um begleitet durch unseren CIO Christopher Peterka über KI in unserem Alltag und speziell in der Medizin zu diskutieren. Zentraler Schlüssel für KI-basierte Fortschritte in allen Bereichen des Lebens sind valide, strukturierte Daten. Gerade in der Medizin sind enorme Fortschritte vorstellbar – doch fehlt es oft an Datenmaterial für die Entwicklungsprozesse. Gerade die pharmazeutische Forschung erhält zurzeit keinen Zugriff auf Daten der „forschenden Versorgung“. Die Experten waren sich einig, dass eine intensivere Aufklärung der Bevölkerung notwendig sei, damit vermehrt Daten, auch anonymisiert, zugunsten einer besseren medizinischen Versorgung bereitgestellt würden. Das Video zur Veranstaltung finden Sie hier.

XING X-Mas Special
Impulsvortrag “IoT” – Christopher Peterka
Im Dezember war unser CIO Christopher Patrick Peterka Teil des XING Puls X-Mas Specials, nachdem er von der Digitalisierungs- und Tech Community in Köln und Düsseldorf unter die Top 3 Speaker des Jahres gewählt wurde und mithin am Best Of zum Jahresabschluss teilnehmen durfte. Die Themen für die Impulsvorträge wurden im Vorfeld als Wichtelgeschenk überreicht. Christopher durfte sich dem Thema #IoT (Internet of Things) annehmen. Eine besondere Qual für einen Futuristen, der den meisten Menschen ein bis zwei Jahrzehnte voraus ist und für den das Internet der Dinge schon vor 20 Jahren begreifbar gewesen ist. Was dabei herauskam, ist umso spannender und jetzt als Video zum flexiblen Nachschauen verfügbar.

Next Gen Digital Day 2020
Quintet Privatbank Merck Finck
A year ago, Quintet Privatbank Merck Finck, under the project manager Daniel Sauerzapf, became the first German private bank to launch a “NextGen” initiative in collaboration with the think tank gannaca, with which it specifically promotes the exchange of ideas among a wealthy young target group of 20-40 year-olds in order to establish a high-quality community in phases. Its significant added value is demonstrated in particular by the fact that high-profile personalities from the worlds of business, culture and sport participate in the active dialog, which extends far beyond the topic of banking. The work of the “NextGen” initiative has resulted in formats such as the NextGen Digital Day with Gabor Steingart in September of this year, which our CIO Christopher Patrick Peterka had the privilege of curating and moderating. From the editorial ship ”The Pioneer One” in Berlin, exciting future topics around the topic of “Long Wealth – the future of wealth” were reported and discussed in a live broadcast.
