Naslov vabljenega predavanja: Four Paradoxes of the Digital Economy
The IV Industrial Revolution has released hidden resources by opening up space for digital transformation and the exponential growth of the virtual market. The interconnected economy, created in the wake of this process, is based on decentralized and collaborative work, without hierarchy and authority and gives new impetus to entrepreneurship and global growth. The digital economy functions on different principles in relation to the traditional economy and therefore requires a different economic philosophy. Information, ideas, innovation and knowledge are the basis for creating value, growth and productivity. Billions of connected and networked human brains are the greatest productive force of the new age. The spirit of digitalised economic freedom rises to perfection, but it carries a lot of dangers and open questions and paradoxes.
