No deal! What’ll Brexit do to online retail? Posted on 7. February 201913. December 2021 | by Franzi Kunz Source: pixabay 30 March 2019 will go down in history. For the first time, the European Union is shrinking, as it’ll lose one of its members that day. In accordance with Article 50 of the Treaty of the European Union, British Prime Minister Theresa May led the exit process after almost 52 per cent of UK citizens voted to leave in 2016. The exit agreement between the EU and UK, which had been negotiated for years, failed before the British House of Commons. A consequence might be a so-called hard Brexit, without binding regulations between the two parties. What consequences does this have for the current state international online retail? Will this huge amount of chaos also hurt online shopping? Continue (5 vote(s), average: 5.00 out of 5)Loading... Categories B2B B2C E-Commerce

Digitisation and education— Personalisation as a recipe for success Posted on 30. January 201913. December 2021 | by Franzi Kunz Source: pixabay Banning cell phones in class or embrace a digital classroom? Hardly any topic is as controversial as digitisation and school. And of course the craziness surrounding around the “digital pact” shows that. 5 billion euros over five years, earmarked for this purpose, will be far from enough for all schools and teachers to finally get fit for digital transformation throughout Germany! But wrong invoices are far from the only problem we face is the (digital) future of our educational institutions. But before it gets too political, let’s try today to translate a very specific recipe for success that we know from digital business into a vision of the future, »Better Schools Through Digitisation«: Personalisation.

»Made in Europe« – The label for the future Posted on 24. January 201913. December 2021 | by Franzi Kunz Source: pixabay »Made in Germany« doesn’t have the ring it used to a few years back.

But the perceived superiority of China and America is not inviolable. Together with Europe, we’ve got to rely on our strengths and make the »Made in Europe« label attractive. And above all that requires one thing: new confidence. Continue (7 vote(s), average: 5.00 out of 5)Loading... Categories Design & Usability E-Commerce

One data system to Hospital 2.0 Posted on 30. November 201828. November 2018 | by Franzi Kunz Source: pexels German hospitals aren’t exactly known for being digital pioneers: Lots of paper with handwritten notes, x-ray prints, and hardly usable digital health insurance cards. A long way from what Hollywood shows medical facilities to be like. In these shows and movies, doctors are far from reality. Using tablets at a patient’s bedside to show the patient their fracture on a digital x-ray with an animation to help explain what happened internally. The German consortium SMITH wants to use a standardised data system to take the first steps towards efficient patient management so that the digital transformation can finally begin in these hospitals.
