Friends of the Oxford Internet Institute are invited to join us at the London launch of Professor Viktor Mayer-Schonberger's latest book, Reinventing Capitalism in the Age of Big Data (Hodder & Stoughton, February 2018). Share a glass of prosecco as we toast Viktor's success!
About the book
In modern history, the story of capitalism has been a story of firms and financiers. That’s all going to change thanks to the Big Data revolution. As Viktor Mayer-Schonberger, New York Times bestselling author of Big Data, and Thomas Ramge, who writes for The Economist, show, data is replacing money as the driver of market behavior. Big finance and big companies will be replaced by small groups and individual actors who make markets instead of making things: think Uber instead of Ford, or Airbnb instead of Hyatt. This is the dawn of the era of data capitalism. Will it be an age of prosperity or of calamity? This book provides the indispensable roadmap for securing a better future.
Viktor will be available for book signings during the drinks reception.
