Roland Siebelink on ‘Dealing with Digital Disruption’

On 21/11, QHHQ is happy to welcome Roland Siebelink – Author of ‘Scaling Silicon Valley Style’,  Scaleup Growth Coach and VUB Alumnus (Communication 1992) – for an exciting debate on ‘Dealing with Digital Disruption’.

 

OVERVIEW

Digital Disrupters are taking the world by storm. Startups based in Silicon Valley, London or elsewhere leverage the power of immensely scalable software to undermine traditional business models in industry after industry. How can traditional companies embrace this wave of transformation to their advantage? And how can regions such as Brussels foster entrepreneurship to take part in this worldwide transformation?
