1
The last 25 years I had the opportunity to work at NGOs and in consulting,
2
safety children and McKinsey.
3
And of course you will never guess which way to start.
4
But additionally I had the opportunity to set up a circular economy incubator,
5
launched with urban finance startup growing mushrooms on coffee waste,
6
set up a sustainability-focused boutique advisory firm,
7
co-authored two books on sustainability,
8
and most recently, set up an investment firm.
9
Now across these 25 years,
10
I've known two main things.
11
The first, business as usual is from farmstruck to environmental collapse,
12
and that's to resolve the tide,
13
you need a new paradigm paradigm,
14
and that new paradigm is impact first.
15
And that second, incremental innovation is going nowhere,
16
and that to turn the tide we need a radically different solution,
17
and that's the opportunity for DICTEC.
18
So today I want to talk about impact first and DICTEC,
19
or more specifically how impact first DICTEC is our future.
20
And if you're wondering what DICTEC is, we'll get to that.
21
But first, let me start where my journey began.
22
It was unbelievably almost 40 years ago when I went to a Greenpeace exhibition board,
23
and what may seem absurd today was still common practice back then.
24
Racy states would dump their nuclear waste into the ocean,
25
and companies, indeed, would dump their untreated toxic waste into the ocean as well.
26
So that did not seem to make any sense,
27
but what did seem to make sense was the Greenpeace pipeline
28
that said our oceans don't have a dream to start polluting them.
29
So I didn't expect in my journey to find different answers to that.
30
But at university, I did not get any new answers.
31
In fact, we were taught the very classic doctrine that nobody put more succinctly than Milton Friedman,
32
who said the one and only social responsibility of business is to increase its pressures.
33
Now, on my first job of management consulting,
34
I did not get the nuances ahead.
35
Incept, talking from the core was the mantra of today.
36
So I took the first opportunity for a career break and went to business school.
37
And besides the more classical curriculum,
38
I started to get fresh perspectives.
39
I think the lecturers, as you say in the building,
40
have a lot of them.
41
It's national team and theater.
42
And I was just one of those peers,
43
contributors and off-campers, not really stay with me,
44
which is Steve Jobs, very famous commensurate address at Stanford,
45
where he said, you've got to find what you like.
46
And if you haven't found it yet, keep looking and setting.
47
And so there's no reason to keep looking and to not setting.
48
Don't set him.
49
That must really stay with me.
50
But one of the figuring things out,
51
the environmental crisis, went from that to terrible.
52
And in 2009, the planetary boundaries framework came out to scientifically assess the state of nature.
53
And in 2009, seed out of the Earth,
54
the systems were in the orange,
55
in the back, and by today,
56
in fact, 6.9 boundaries have been fixed.
57
In fact, all realms of nature,
58
climate, sexual, and allergies, all are in jeopardy.
59
And these are just scientific data points.
60
They have real-world implications.
61
In our land system, we agree that we don't have enough to grow food.
62
If fresh water is depleted,
63
we don't have enough to irrigate our crops and drink.
64
So this has real-world implications.
65
For us, perhaps ten years ago,
66
there was an opportunity to think that policymakers would fix it for us.
67
With a Paris Agreement, set in motion,
68
there was this window of hope.
69
And yet the 1.5 degree country that was mentioned reached after that last year already.
70
And current policy is on track for a 2.7 degree future world.
71
And so, Wilha is reading,
72
the news might agree that pining our hopes on enlightened policy makers does not seem a promising proposition.
73
It's actually perhaps hope that business is fixing it for us,
74
business as usual, incrementally improving what it does,
75
when I think that's what gets here in the first place.
76
And so I think it's a very new paradigm,
77
and yet new paradigm is impact force.
78
Instead of the traditional notion of maximizing profits now and relying on others to fix issues later,
79
impact force flips that notion on its head,
80
and it starts at the very opposite end.
81
It starts with the question,
82
does the economic activity I pursue,
83
does that align with a future worth living,
84
with a futuristic economy thriving within monetary boundaries to the benefits of all?
85
And once that question is then addressed,
86
then which afterwards makes an activity more economically accessible?
87
Now of course this is very difficult for incumbent businesses embedded in a business-as-usual mode to pursue.
88
But perhaps there are other companies who can do this.
89
And one great example is Keith Stemper and Echodia,
90
who planted with that very notion and vision of regenerating nature and planting trees.
91
And to do so, he set up a search engine,
92
Echodia, now the eighth-nest search engine in the world,
93
to generate projects in order to plant tree and regenerate nature.
94
And by now, it's planted well over 200 million trees.
95
And so it demonstrates that the notion of impact source on the scalable business model came to exist.
96
And so, mostly working in a permanent business,
97
I noticed how difficult it is to change an existing system.
98
And at the same time,
99
I was starting to work with early-stage venture capital investors who were much more interested in disrupting a status quo.
100
And so I started to wonder whether it wouldn't be exciting to apply an impact-first mindset to early-stage investing.
101
And coincidentally, I met a serial entrepreneur and investor who was excited about this very same question.
102
And so together, we set up an impact-first investment firm.
103
But to just start, we took the time,
104
took the step back to think about and synthesize our learnings across innovation, entrepreneurship and investing.
105
And we both engulfed down into two core beliefs.
106
The first, that we want to align everything,
107
everything we invest into with our vision for a future fit economy that within planetary boundaries to the benefits of all.
108
And second, that we want to fast-track deep-pick disruption,
109
so not implementing innovation, but deep-pick disruption to build radically new solutions.
110
And then you can think about first investors who also ask the question what deep-pick of course is,
111
and this is something I want to briefly answer now.
112
And Deep Deep is the result of scientific breakthroughs requiring intensive R&D.
113
But I think most importantly is the question, what can it do?
114
And when I think about what it can do,
115
I really think about a metaphor that was shared with me by William McDonough,
116
the co-founder of Co-Dip Trader,
117
that I had the pleasure to interview for my first book on research here, Equinomy.
118
And he said, if you go to Mexico,
119
but you're heading towards Canada,
120
slowing down is not enough.
121
You have to turn around.
122
And so incremental innovation is exactly that, slowing down.
123
It lessens the destruction.
124
It lessens the damage from business as usual.
125
That's what incremental innovation, energy is making things less bad.
126
However, if you build something new,
127
like Ecosia, like deep-text solution,
128
new materials, waste-custaining, If you build something new,
129
you have the opportunity to come on now.
130
Now, the deep-pack first, investors,
131
we then ask, where should we apply deep-pack?
132
The fluxing.
133
Now, we started with a familiar perspective from which bacteria data is available, CO2 emissions.
134
We very clearly provide this a two-plus of all emissions arise from energy use.
135
We for good reasons, investors set 4 caliums into the new world.
136
We wanted to address the ecological crisis,
137
not just climate, but hedge funds and planet for this which we learned you to ocean health.
138
And surprisingly, there weren't any data explaining which sector did destroy the most and which solutions,
139
accordingly to help us, could carry the tide.
140
So we did to that and analyzed which sector is drawing environmental destruction and what we found it was tight.
141
It's amazing.
142
In fact, we found that almost 50% of all environmental destruction is caused by the food system, but agriculture.
143
So it really matters what we eat.
144
And next is industry and construction.
145
So if you think, every part of the world cuts or we're eating,
146
that's not just climate impacts,
147
it's water, dangers, driving biodiversity loss.
148
Equally, if you think about forestry,
149
to look for action in the structure of paper and other industrial applications.
150
And that's starting not just private impacts,
151
but fresh water and land use and biodiversity.
152
Yes, the reduced key sector really became the focus of our investigation.
153
And of course the next question then was,
154
are there any exciting deep tech phenomena?
155
By now, we've made our first investment,
156
and I'm excited to share that we started with the construction industry thinking about how to reinvent insulation.
157
In fact, we invested in a Cambridge spinner that touches the problem of today's insulation repair,
158
which is not just thick and heavy,
159
it's also poor performance of molecular producers, toxic, non-desitable waste waste.
160
Whereas instead, the biobased algaes that produce out of biological waste stream underbodies chemo,
161
the acid can sound better,
162
and of course, they buy bad grade and can safely be returned to a biosecid after use.
163
We are now looking into other issues that will impact the agricultural survey chain,
164
and now we're screening an up-told spin on it that turns agricultural waste into a power substitute.
165
And as you know, that power is the most damaging a cultural commodity after me and Gary,
166
you would be as excited as we are to produce a substitute of potato tea.
167
And so this is the opportunity to take waste, turn that into value.
168
Similarly, sewage sludge, something that today is decilibrated,
169
and instead what is the component into fertile soil?
170
If you can produce fumig matter that we bring in our fields to improve soil health,
171
improve water retention, and as result, boost agricultural yield.
172
There are really interesting opportunities to speak that today they're not available in cost-compositive yet.
173
They're not available at scale.
174
But it does take upon us that we take low-valued waste streams,
175
unwanted waste streams, and we can only do high-value desirable solutions.
176
Now, the question then for investors,
177
of course, is can we escape,
178
can we grow the prices, can we achieve prosperity?
179
And the cost very clearly is yes.
180
We do have the playbook.
181
Of course, we know there is a storage.
182
We've seen 90% or more costecreens over the last 50 years.
183
And by now, solar is one-third cheaper than any other fossil fuel anywhere globally,
184
globally, and to that we do that class,
185
we should achieve prosperity and petropower comes.
186
Now, solutions exist at night,
187
but we need investment to scale it.
188
And to be in the market,
189
I think I've no better quote than what Bookman Stachiller said.
190
He said, you never change something by fighting to existing reality.
191
You change something by a a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.
192
So impact first is that new model,
193
and it will make today's business as usual system of pay, make, waste, obsolete.
194
We know that solutions exist at last day,
195
and we know what it takes to scale them,
196
it takes investment, but we also know that our opportunities,
197
the time to carry it, is rapidly diminishing.
198
Business as usual is on a fast track to environmental disruption,
199
And now is the time to turn the tide to invest and scale impact solutions for global impact.
200
So this, I believe, is at the moment.
201
Let's not waste it.
202
Let's not check it.
203
Let's innovate, let's celebrate impact,
204
and let's together to create a future worth again.
205
Thank you.

Perché praticare il parlato con questo video?
Il video di Philipp Buddemeier offre un'opportunità unica per gli studenti di imparare l'inglese con youtube attraverso un contesto vivace e attuale. Discutendo di temi come l'innovazione profonda e l'impatto sociale, Buddemeier utilizza un linguaggio e una terminologia che invitano alla riflessione. Questo tipo di contenuto non solo migliora la comprensione del soggetto trattato, ma aiuta anche a praticare la conversazione in inglese in un contesto reale. Ascoltando e ripetendo, gli studenti possono assimilare strutture grammaticali e vocaboli nuovi, migliorando la loro fluidità.
Grammatica e Espressioni nel Contesto
- “Business as usual” - Questa espressione indica che nulla cambierà se non si adottano approcci innovativi, utile per comprendere frasi idiomatiche.
- “Social responsibility” - Un concetto centrale nel video, utile per esprimere opinioni su temi etici e aziendali.
- “Find what you like” - Questo consiglio di Steve Jobs è un ottimo esempio di imperativo che incoraggia l'auto-esplorazione, molto utile nelle conversazioni motivate.
Queste espressioni possono essere utilizzate in discussioni su valori personali e pratiche aziendali, aiutando gli studenti a migliorare la pronuncia inglese e a sviluppare argomenti di conversazione.
Trappole di Pronuncia Comuni
Durante il video, ci sono alcune parole e suoni che potrebbero risultare difficili da pronunciare. Ecco alcuni esempi:
- “Impact” - La "i" breve e la "a" non accentata possono confondere chi impara l'inglese. È importante esercitarsi a pronunciarla correttamente per farsi capire meglio.
- “Innovation” - Attenzione alla corretta divisione delle sillabe: in-no-va-tion.
- “Paradigm” - Una parola chiave nel video, spesso mal pronunciata. Si pronuncia “pari-daim” e può essere utile esercitarla con la pratica di conversazione in inglese.
Utilizzare tecniche di shadow speech può aiutare a superare queste difficoltà. Ripetere espressioni chiave e frasi del video non solo migliora la pronuncia, ma fornisce anche un'opportunità per interiorizzare il contenuto in modo dinamico e coinvolgente.
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
