Max Thinius // Futurologist
About Max
Max Thinius is regarded as Europe’s leading futurologist and creator of the future. In addition to his work as a consultant for people, companies and regions, he is a moderator and bestselling author.
Max’s product is: to create your own freedom. According to your own possibilities and ideas. Because the future doesn’t come, it is created – by ourselves. It is important to look at the future holistically, including the individual person or organization, instead of just dealing with trends or visions.
One of the greatest feelings of freedom is: to recognize how one can shape one’s own future.
Max publishes in many public media, was often a guest in the scientific advisory board of the German government, advises people and companies (DAX to medium-sized businesses) as well as regions and organizations (associations) in actively shaping their own future.
