DT 500 THE INSTITUTIONAL QUESTION SERIES: STEFAN HYTTFORS’ FUTURERISM: STOCKHOLM

STEFAN HYTTFORS: ARE WE READY FOR WHAT COMES NEXT?

AI, automation, disruption and the future of work are no longer distant predictions — they are reshaping the world around us.

Futurist Stefan Hyttfors takes a provocative look at how technology is changing business, leadership and human behaviour, challenging the assumptions behind the way we work and build organisations.

As companies race to adapt to technological change, the bigger question is becoming impossible to ignore: what happens to people, power and leadership when the rules of work are rewritten?

A sharp and forward-looking conversation about innovation, disruption, technology and the future of work — and who will be prepared to lead what comes next.

A razor-sharp portrait of Clayton Patterson and the Lower East Side as a battleground of culture, law, and survival — where art was not a career but evidence of a city in freefall and reinvention. From police surveillance and court battles to the rise of gentrification and curated “authenticity,” Patterson’s archive exposes how urban life is documented, controlled, and ultimately rewritten. A story about New York then — and every major city now — asking a brutal question: who owns reality when the streets are no longer affordable to live in, only to consume?
