 Dear viewer
Thank you for downloading our monthly “Understand the Present to See the
Future” presentation. What other topic can we cover in 201103 than the
Japanese Sendai earthquake?
The human suffering of natural catastrophes always cause comradeship, at
least for a while. This time however, the nuclear consequences of the
catastrophe have caused a worldwide outcry and political turmoil on energy
policies.
We have done some research on the topic and would like to share our
findings with you.
Stay tuned and looking fwd to hearing from you!
Cheers,

Jasper Bouwsma
Founder Vujàdé Ltd.

 Vu-jà-dé
Vujàdé is the opposite of déjà-vu and refers to something that
has not yet taken place or has not yet existed.
Looking for new solutions.
Critically questioning existing structures and behavior.
Looking at something from a different or an unusual point of view.
In other words: Vujàdé stands for innovation.
