I had the chance to talk to Simon Mainwaring, about the social impact that successful brands could - and should - have on their customers and the rest of the world.

I had the pleasure of meeting David Li, he is the founder of the Shenzhen open innovation lab. He can describe the chinese innovation scene in a great way. We also talked about the situation in Europe and why Europe is not as innovative anymore. His answer was really insightful: Europe and the US have run out of problems to solve. Check out the entire conversation to learn more about innovation in China, and specifically what makes Shenzhen unique. A great insight in the Shenzhen open innovation lab.

I had the pleasure of meeting Jeffrey Kang, he is the founder and CEO of IngDan, which is the largest IoT platform in the world. Jeffrey Kang has a impressive story. His vision, his ambition, his success is just incredible. I felt very honored to meet him and wanted to share some of his insights with you in this short interview.

Mickey McManus is brilliant. He is a research fellow at Autodesk and is creating the future of that company. I shared my ideas and concepts from my latest book, customers the day after tomorrow, and wanted to have Mickey's ideas on that. I LOVED this conversation. Hope you will as well.

Davy Kestens is the founder/CEO of customer experience software company Sparkcentral.

We've been working together for more than 5 years now. I really enjoyed to see the growth of his fantastic company. His vision on the future customer experience is really interesting. Enjoy our conversation.
