Der Große Neustart – Details, episodes & analysis

Volocopter⁠ ist DER Pionier der Luftmobilität. Bei den Olympischen Sommerspielen in Paris 2024 wird das deutsche Startup Geschichte schreiben: Dank der Unterstützung des französischen Präsidenten Macron und Bundeskanzler Scholz wird Volocopter offiziell seinen VoloCity-Lufttaxi-Service für Passagiere einsetzen.  ⁠CEO Dirk Hoke⁠: "Wir bieten weltweit die höchsten Sicherheitsstandards."  Innerhalb von 13 Jahren ist Volocopter zum Marktführer in der Advanced Air Mobility-Industrie geworden, hat beide Zertifizierungen -für Produktion und Design- erhalten; allein die EASA fordert 1 Milliarde Test-Flugstunden!  ⁠Volocopter⁠ hat ein ganzes Ökosystem aufgebaut: Volocity, die Passagierdrohne, Frachtdrohnen, VoloRegion für längere Strecken, Landeplätze und VoloIQ – 500+ Mitarbeiter und weltweit sechs Standorte. Dirk Hoke betont die Bedeutung von elektrischen Flügen über Großstädten, um Staus und Umweltverschmutzung zu reduzieren: "Zudem sind wir so sicher, dass selbst wenn von den 18 Rotoren unseres Lufttaxis 2 oder 3 oder selbst 6 Rotoren ausfallen, eine sichere Landung garantiert werden kann." Auch ein Grund für die erfolgreiche Zusammenarbeit mit der ADAC-Luftrettung.  Der globale Lufttaxi-Markt boomt bereits - die Regierungen in den USA und China haben das erkannt und unterstützen ihre Unternehmen tatkräftig. Alle Zeichen stehen auf Schlüsselindustrie: Der Airtaxi-Marktwert soll laut Fortune Business in den nächsten 4 Jahren um 58% wachsen, neue Arbeitsplätze schaffen - und natürlich, als großer Beitrag in Richtung Net-Zero den Städte- und Zubringer-Verkehr klimafreundlich unterstützen. Wir sprechen über die Anfänge von Volocopter bis heute, wo sie Nummer eins in Europa sind, einschließlich Herausforderungen wie Widerstand in der Lokalpolitik. Über Investoren und die dringende Notwendigkeit der Zusammenarbeit von Politik, Wissenschaft und Industrie sowie die Rolle des Pioniergeistes in der Bewältigung von Widerständen und der Gestaltung einer neuen Ära der Luftmobilität.

With endorsements from the G20, UN, World Bank, IOSCO, the ⁠International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) ⁠stands at the forefront of standard-setting efforts, shaping the future of sustainable finance and reporting worldwide. Founded in 2021 at COP26 in Glasgow, under the stewardship of ⁠Emmanuel Faber as Chair⁠, the ISSB has become a globally recognized and respected standard-setter. Within its first two years, the ISSB has issued the inaugural IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards: IFRS S1 General Requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information and IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures. It reduced the ‘alphabet soup’ of sustainability disclosures by incorporating standards and frameworks from the Value Reporting Foundation, the Climate Disclosure Standards Board, and the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) into ISSB Standards. - It secured endorsement of its Standards by the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) and published a roadmap for supporting jurisdictional adoption. - Already, on Finance day at COP28, close to 500 organizations from 64 jurisdictions, representing $120 trillion in assets, have signed the statement of support. - Global regulatory backing comes from regulators and standard setters from 40+ jurisdictions, including ASEAN, EU, Japan, UK, and more. ⁠Emmanuel Faber, a pioneer for decades⁠ - leading as CEO and Chairman of Danone to become a global leader in corporate sustainability - was named one of the "World’s 50 Greatest leaders" by Fortune. This background makes him the perfect fit for the ISSB to revolutionize sustainability reporting. Key topics include: - The rationale behind new global ISSB standards - The implementation of a global scanning system for the company's entire value chain. - The significance of Scope 3. - Future-proofing businesses. - Up-skilling boards. - The urgency of addressing climate change. - Aligning corporate practice with ESG and SDG principles to drive long-term value creation. And more.

Laut einer Ipsos-Studie erhöht soziale Isolation das Risiko eines vorzeitigen Todes signifikant und steigert das Demenz-Risiko um 50 Prozent. Nebenan.de füllt eine wichtige Lücke in der Gesellschaft. In den kommenden zwei Jahren, so das Ziel, sollen alle Nachbarschaften in Deutschland miteinander verbunden sein.

The First Successful Breast Surgery in the Metaverse. Dr Pedro Gouveia, Surgeon of the Breast Unit of the Champalimaud Clinical Centre in Lisbon, performed the first successful breast cancer operation in the Metaverse. While he and the patient were in the operating theatre at the Champalimaud Foundation in Portugal, his colleague was intervening and supervising from the University of Zaragoza in Spain - 900 kilometres away. But there is more to this story than the wonders of the Metaverse. The technology used by Dr Gouveia and his colleagues means that the entire process - tumour identification, diagnosis, surgery and treatment - dramatically reduces the risks and trauma to patients. This extraordinary pioneering undertaking has won Pedro Gouveia, the “Best and Greatest Portuguese Technology award.” Dr Gouveia talks about 🎤 his medical breakthrough 🎤 surgical Metaverse education & Metaverse emotions 🎤 a digital, non-invasive methodology that allows surgeons to very precisely locate the tumour to be extracted 🎤 Breast 4.0, Health 4.0 and the 4th Industrial Revolution also: 🎤 why breast cancer is today, the most common cancer in the world 🎤 why mainly women in the West are so vulnerable to this disease 🎤 future advantages for the digital patient / digital hospital / digital healthcare system 🎤 AND: that we have to change our lifestyle

Destination Earth is a high precision digital model of the Earth. It is the EU’s flagship initiative to create a digital replica of our entire planet. "This replica is a Digital Twin in fact. It’s a gigantic task, that requires the world’s biggest computing to create the most precise data to tackle climate change.” That’s how Dr. Peter Bauer describes this 7 billion Euro project which he heads. It's part of the EU’s Green Deal to tackle climate change and it is meant to provide pinpoint evidence-based support to enable Member States to implement the green transformation. Destination Earth aims to provide the complex software and hardware environment needed for the next generation of very high-resolution prediction models. By 2030, it is expected to have been achieved. DestinE Actors: EU Commission, European Space Agency, European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts and European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites Peter Bauer talks about: - How Destination Earth can help the planet to heal - first digitally, then in reality - How to improve our understanding of climate change and enable solutions at global, regional and local level - How to predict where to live safely for the next five decades - What Destination Earth has in common with the Metaverse - Obstacles and finances including the impact of the energy crisis

“We enable cities to understand and monitor their emissions, choose the best path to net zero and collaborate at scale to implement a comprehensive transition plan.” Tomer Shalit, Founder and CEO of the Swedish Company, ClimateView, named by Fast Company as one the most innovative companies of 2021. What Tomer is describing is ClimateOs - an extraordinary technology that his company has created and rolled out in less than 3 years. It is the world’s first platform to support climate decision-making across the entire economic matrix of cities. In short: a technology that operates as a climate action tracker for local governments. Where cities once took up to 12 months to understand and focus on energy usage and emission targets, they now take days, if not hours. Why is this important? Currently, more than half of the global population is urban - rising to two thirds by 2050. Cities consume 78% of the world’s primary energy and generate more than 70% of global carbon emissions, according to the World Economic Forum. There is little doubt that cities are the frontline in creating and tackling climate change; representing both the biggest challenge as well as the greatest opportunity to keep warming well below 2°C. "That’s why 170 cities are now using it, 51 of them in Germany“, says Michael Bergöö, the company's Community Director for German speaking Europe. Sweden has decided to roll it out for the entire country. Hopefully, ClimateView can persuade Germany to follow Sweden’s example.

Gründer und CEO Karsten Hirsch: “Wenn 80 Prozent des Plastiks in den Ozeanen aus etwa 1.000 Flüssen angeschwemmt wird, weshalb reinigt denn keine Firma in der Welt die Flüsse?” Das war der Beginn der Mission von Plastic Fischer. Als erstes Unternehmen widmen sie sich 2019 der Plastikbefreiung von Flüssen. Quasi Übernacht entwickelt das deutsche Start-up dafür die LLL-Technologie TrashBoom, eine vor Ort entwickelte (local), technisch einfache (low-tech) und kostengünstige Lösung (low-cost). In drei Jahren konnten sie fast 150 Tonnen Plastik aus vor allem stark verschmutzten asiatischen Flüssen, wie dem Ganges in Indien oder dem Citarum in Indonesien sammeln und verarbeiten. Das World Economic Forum hat sie dafür als Top Innovator 2022 ausgezeichnet. Plastic Fischer hat große Pläne: “Wir wollen in jeder Stadt Indiens, die am Wasser liegt, einen Standort haben. Dann erzielen wir wirklich einen Impact.” Das Business-Modell: Weil die Arbeit durch Dritte über Cleanhub und Empower überprüft wird, kann Plastic Fischer Investoren ein Impact-Zertifikat zum Nachweis ihrer Aktivitäten ausstellen. Für Unternehmen, die die ESGs und SDGs unterstützen, heisst das: Ein Plastic Fischer Credit entspricht 1000 kg gesammeltem, verarbeitetem und durch Dritte verifiziertem Plastik aus dem Fluss.

CEO Matt Rogers: “We are deeply committed to decarbonise 7 heavy-emitting industries by 2050: Cement, Steel, Aluminium and Chemicals - as well as Shipping, Aviation and Trucking.” These 7 big industries are the building blocks of the global economy. Currently, they are responsible for 30% of GHG emissions globally. The 4 materials alone are responsible for 60% of current industry emissions. Where to begin? "Our 400 partners made bold commitments. Now is the time for bold actions. Because we know how to get from here to there on a step-by-step-basis." Mission Possible Partnership is the first high-ambition, business backed organisation that is providing cross-sector and sector strategies to decarbonise 7 industries by 2050. The alliance of 400+ leaders are partnering up to clean up, focused on supercharging decarbonisation across the entire value chain. Founded and driven by the Energy Transitions Commission, RMI, We Mean Business Coalition, and the World Economic Forum, other partners include the Global Maritime Forum, Bezos Earth Fund and McKinsey. "We connect the dots." Matt Rogers talks in an fascinating and uplifting interview about: # radical collaboration across the entire value chain # getting to net-zero on a step by step basis # net-zero growth is central to the mapping # cross sector and cross country strategies # re-thinking business models # finance, technology, commitment, resilience # how investors drive demand # standard setting # hard work and a tribute to the innovators

Jane Gilbert is the world’s first Chief Heat Officer. Her task is to prepare and protect Miami’s citizens for and from the heat. Extreme heat is responsible for more deaths than all other climate driven disasters in the US combined. We talk about around 12.000 death each year. By 2100, according to a study by the University of Washington, the annual toll could be close to 100.000. By then, 94% of Miami Beach would be underwater. Not a small task to manage. Jane's strategies and goals, the effectiveness of extreme heat toolkits and the new health task force. About climate resilience hubs and heat shelters. The consequences for peoples health and living standards and whether the rich are staying healthy and the poor are dying faster. And: Why Miami's first CHO is a role model for Los Angeles, Athens, Freetown in Sierra Leone and many more. More about CHO Jane Gilbert, The Great Reset, Climate Change, the host
