Wie hat #JamilJamil, der als 16-jähriger Flüchtling aus Syrien in ein Land mit fremder Sprache und Kultur kam, seine Kraftanstrengung der letzten zehn Jahre empfunden: das Abitur zu schaffen und nun als Stipendiat sein Maschinenbau-Masterstudium zu wuppen? „Es gab auch Hindernisse und Probleme, und es war nicht alles einfach zu erreichen, aber ich bin trotzdem meinen Weg gegangen", blickt der 26-Jährige heute zurück.

Advertisers in Sweden are increasingly hiring mixed models or combining models to depict mixed families. This is not out of some social justice conscience: they just want to make money. Because the way Sweden's demography is moving, 7-8 years from now most people in the country with a salary will be foreign-*born*. Not to mention the huge proportion of employed people with a foreign-born parent or two. These ads are a good sign for our ongoing #integration.

Social #Entrepreneurship: Was benötigen ukrainische #Geflüchtete, um sich hier auf Dauer wohlzufühlen?

Im Rahmen eines Projektseminars haben Studierende der Pädagogischen #Hochschule #Karlsruhe dieses Semester Prototypen für soziale Geschäftsideen zum Thema #Integration entwickelt. Im Mittelpunkt standen ukrainische Geflüchtete in Karlsruhe.

Megatrend **#20** - Physical-Digital Retail Integration: "𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑓𝑢𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑖𝑠𝑛'𝑡 𝑜𝑛𝑙𝑖𝑛𝑒 𝑜𝑟 𝑖𝑛-𝑠𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑒; 𝑖𝑡'𝑠 𝑎 𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑠𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑖𝑧𝑒𝑑, 𝑝ℎ𝑦𝑔𝑖𝑡𝑎𝑙 𝑒𝑥𝑝𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑏𝑢𝑖𝑙𝑑𝑠 𝑎 𝑙𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑛𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛." - Futurist Jim Carroll

(Futurist Jim Carroll is writing a series on 30 Megatrends, which he first outlined in his book Dancing in the Rain: How Bold Leaders Grow Stronger in Stormy Times. The trends were shared in the book as a way of demonstrating that, despite any period of economic volatility, there is always long-term opportunity to be found.

Retail and commercial spaces are being fundamentally reimagined, not eliminated. They are being transformed into experience centres rather than transactional environments. The role of physical space in customer journeys is being completely redefined.

It's called The Experience Economy, and involves the introduction to your vocabulary of an entirely new word: phygital. Here's the full PDF report.

What's it all about? Think about how much retail has changed in the last few years with e-commerce and online shopping. Mix in the accelerator that was the pandemic. Add to it faster-moving technology. Bring in the fact that many retail stores are in decline in terms of traffic, design, and layout as people shop in person less. The idea? Change it all up to bring the opportunity of that in-store experience back, but with a twist: stores and retail not just as a place to shop, but as a place to experience.

The result is a global retail landscape undergoing an irreversible paradigm shift from a purely transactional model towards one centered on experience. This transformation is driven by the strategic integration of physical and digital worlds—"phygital" retail.

Physical retail spaces are being reimagined as dynamic experience centers, where the primary objective is to forge deep, emotional connections with consumers.

Bottom line?

Retailers will increasingly function as data companies that also happen to sell goods, because it's all about phygital.

Danke & Zustimmung - die säkulare #Geburtenimplosion geht zu schnell. Bei 1 #Geburtenrate von ca. 1,8 würde die europäische Bevölkerung immer noch um 50+ Millionen Menschen pro Generation schrumpfen, die deutsche um 8+ Mio. Das ist viel, aber könnte m.E. durch durch #Integration & steigende Produktivität aufgefangen werden. Bei unter 1,6 verändert sich jedoch nicht nur die #Demografie, sondern auch die #Demokratie & #Wirtschaft massiv. scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-
