Digitalization and the Corona Leap – Jaakko Lindgren & Antti Toponen | Neuvottelija 12
Originally published as “Digitalisaation koronamurros | Jaakko Lindgren Antti Toponen | Neuvottelija 12”
Two authors of the book Digitalisaatio, lawyers Jaakko Lindgren (Dottir) and Antti Toponen (Sulapak), reflect on the digital leap forced by the March 2020 coronavirus crisis: why remote-work tools had been ready for over ten years but management culture had not, how quickly wet signatures and physical shareholder meetings collapsed, how value chains reverse their sign for globalization and the sharing economy, where big-data surveillance and location tracking lead, and why creative destruction and global cooperation decide the direction after the crisis.
