🤝 Together with Mastercard, we are strengthening Germany and Europe as a GovTech hotspot. At the Munich Security Conference, we joined Jon Huntsman and his team to discuss transatlantic cooperation and how we can join forces to improve the interaction between citizens and government and increase the quality of public services. AI-powered decision-making and digital platforms can redefine governments, drive progresses and build bridges in an increasingly digital world. That's why we are bringing our start-ups, such as Wire and Aleph Alpha, to the table with Mastercard. Not only the World Economic Forum demonstrates the urgency of the situation, underlining the determination to act to create a connected, sustainable, and resilient future. 💰 By 2035, $9.8 trillion will be unlocked globally to streamline processes, reduce costs, and restore public trust. We look forward to working with Mastercard and are confident about a less bureaucratic future. 🤫 Psst, for those of you who are particularly interested in fintech, mark the 12th of March in your calendar and come to the Mastercard Fintech Forum 2025. ☑️ Here you can find more information and register: https://lnkd.in/d9AEcg5S Wire I Mastercard I TUM Venture Labs I Aleph Alpha GovTech Campus Deutschland I Lars Zimmermann I Manuel Kilian I Ammar Alkassar

"There is no harm in setting big goals—the effort to achieve them remains the same." 💫 Last night, we had the pleasure of welcoming Nandan M. Nilekani to the Munich Urban Colab. He left us with some powerful takeaways on leadership, goal setting, and the transformative power of digital technology. 💭 Think Big, Act Concrete Ambitious goals don't discourage, they inspire! They ignite a shared sense of purpose, unlock hidden talent, and drive us to action. Everyone wants to be part of something bigger than themselves – a mission, a movement, a transformation. However, big thinking needs to be grounded in concrete action. Nandan M. Nilekani set a future goal and then worked backwards to define the steps needed to achieve it. This practical, results-oriented mindset is crucial for turning vision into reality. 🗺️ A Journey of Leadership Nandan M. Nilekani also talked about his fascinating leadership journey, starting with his entrepreneurial endeavors. The experience gained at Infosys shaped one level of leadership, while his time in government added another dimension. This diverse background highlights the importance of continuous learning and adaptation in leadership. 🔮 Digital Transformation for a Nation He also highlighted the profound impact of digital public infrastructure. It's not just about technology; it's about inclusion, economic growth, and societal progress. Digital transformation has the power to reshape nations and create a better future for all.
