Herman Wagter is one of the founders and co-editor of Dadamotive. His work as interim manager and consultant (Citynet Amsterdam/Fiber-to-the-Home, Platform Sustainable Mobility) has involved him directly in the impact of hyperconnectivity and sustainability on society. As an independent agent and "mobile warrior" he has experienced the pro's and con's of how organizations and projects can be structured, and what the effects on the final result can be. In his opinion we are entering an era of profound change, driven by these fundamental forces. Following the trends, discovering the fun and debunking the half-truths is a passion he likes to share with others.

Willem Boersma was trained as a chemical engineer, works in software development and is interested in new technologies. He believes that the Dow Jones saw three periods of more or less continuous rise in the 20th century. From 1900-1920 because of developments in transportation. From 1945-1965 because of developments in productivity. And from 1985-2000 because of developments in information technology. He is convinced that the next rise will start somewhere around 2015 and will be due to developments in sustainable technology. Until that happens, he is looking for evidence of the opposite.
