Redefining Growth in the 21st Century

Martin Stuchtey and Per-Anders Enkvist

We are standing at a crossroads. A massive disruption of new, effectively exponential technology is sweeping through our economy just at a time when the economic, social and environmental costs of conventional growth are becoming ever more evident.

Disruptive technology is one of the defining economic trends of our age. What is the true impact of such disruption on the world’s economies, and does it have the potential to solve global problems such as low growth, inequality and environmental degradation? Why not seize this opportunity and make it a good disruption?

A Good Disruption highlights some of the huge costs that are at stake and argues that managing such disruption will be the defining business challenge of the next decade.
