Biography
The Business Philosopher & Technology Evangelist
Anders Indset is a Norwegian-born philosopher, deep-tech investor, and former elite athlete. Recognized by Thinkers50 as one of the most influential thinkers in technology and leadership for the coming years, he serves as a trusted sparring partner and advisor to global leaders and top executives.
With his deep understanding of the implications of exponential technologies, Anders demonstrates how and why leadership and its relation to philosophy are becoming more relevant than ever.
