Every year, both my ego and my actions are called into question \u2013 not only by the participants and moderators, but also by myself.<\/p>\n<p>While I\u2019m wondering how to get a grip on my own little worries, I meet people here who have bigger plans and want to move things. For whom getting \u201crich\u201d isn\u2019t enough \u2013 they want to inspire others.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, I also meet new startups that want to change things. Whether it\u2019s the <a href=\"http:\/\/dycle.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Dycle.org<\/a> movement, which wants to return diapers to the natural cycle, or stone paper from <a href=\"http:\/\/paperontherocks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">paperontherocks<\/a>, which \u2013 made without cellulose and with little water \u2013 sets out to minimize soil erosion.<\/p>\n<p>This year, besides the conference bottle from Ratiodrink, I was particularly impressed by the following people:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/WROvwFepqos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Dr. Gerald H\u00fcther<\/a>, who addressed object &amp; subject language<\/li>\n<li>Economist <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/HSfLJO_20QM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Prof. Faltin<\/a>, who despairs that humanity is not, after all, a homo oeconomicus and assumes that overpriced goods automatically come with higher quality<\/li>\n<li>Hearing <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/4UNbmjVJcUU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Prof. Dr. Georg Schrey\u00f6gg<\/a> made me seriously wonder whether, in terms of growth crises, I had ever made it past the startup phase<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.spiegel.de\/spiegel\/print\/d-13685143.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Eberhart Wagemann<\/a>, who classified us as mediocre, listless beings and asked us openly: \u201cDo you actually know what your mediocrity has cost you so far?\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Michael Diestel introduced me to rural cooperatives, which can even be founded to renovate a village pub<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.agbe.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Johanna Richter<\/a> told us what advisory duties come with being queen (one of six) of a mountain village in Togo.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Our contribution to the Entrepreneurship Summit was a game we developed ourselves. Barbara Hoppe had asked us to contribute something on the topic of innovation. But the more we discussed it as a team, the more we arrived at the topic of agility.<\/p>\n<p>Entrepreneurs often found a company around a product or service for a specific target group. We wanted to develop a game in which founders experience that products\/services and target groups can \u2013 and must \u2013 change. Otherwise, they fail. So we called our session: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneurship.de\/summit\/events\/innovation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><strong>Under Pressure \u2013 there is more than innovation <\/strong>(Verena Bischoff, David Weigend, and Andr\u00e9 Winzer)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For this purpose, we brought experienced game developer David Weigend on board. Together with Verena and a number of test players, we then brought along our beta version: 5 sets for 30 players.<\/p>\n<p>Afterward, it was clear: the game has potential. The players wanted more instructions, more time, and less math. But they had real fun. Whether childcare via the internet or nursing homes for German retirees in India &#8211; everyone joined in with gusto and plenty of team spirit. We thank all players for their valuable feedback. We\u2019re continuing to work on it and refining the concept.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re now thinking \u201cI want to play,\u201d feel free to get in touch. We\u2019re starting up again on November 9, 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Dear team at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.entrepreneurship.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Stiftung Entrepreneurship<\/a> (Simon, Barbara 1, Barbara 2, Florian, Joanna, and everyone else), dear Prof. Faltin: thank you for your energy and enthusiasm. It was a fantastic summit. For now, we wish you a good rest.
