Romy Sigl

future of work - do more of what makes you happy Freedom and the intent to change what does not feel comfortable, describes Romy best. A positive and long lasting impact on how people spend their time working is what she wants to achieve. Do more of what makes you happy. Since a matter of fact people have to work nearly their lifetime. May be it’s a good and sustainable idea NOT disliking your job, disliking your life as a result, getting ill and dying at the end of a unfulfilled life, that’s what Romy thought 2 years ago. Focusing on that she quit her job in an international design agency and started working on her coworkingspace concept. After one year of development and lots of people not believing in a positive impact of coworking, she finally managed to find the first coworkers, the perfect space and to open the doors. Why she did not give up; “I was absolutely sure that CoWorking is what our society needs. If you do just once, what nobody trusts you to do you´ll never have to mind their boundaries again.

“From Virtual to Reality – The D-Dalus Project” David John Wills is the CEO of 1AT21, an innovative aircraft technology company based in Linz, Austria. 1AT21 got international media attention from prestigious “Wall Street Journal” to “Discovery Channel” when they presented their concept “D-Dalus” for the first time at Paris Air Show in 2012. D-Dalus is a completely new airial vehicle and may be one of the most innovative aerial vehicles of our time. D-Dalus combines the advantages of helicopters with those of fixed wing aircrafts, stays stabile in the air, rotates about all three axis at 360 degree, has the ability to land on moving platforms like boats in rough sea thanks three dimensional synchronization and glue down by reversed thrust. In forward flight, D-Dalus needs 30 to 60 % less power compared to helicopters because vertical thrust is created by its high lift and low drag wing body design. At TEDxPannonia, David will present the project, the reasons their concept raised world-wide excitement and explain the potential of eventually allowing mankind to fulfill its dream of leaving the ground and live and work in air-space as naturally as we live on the ground today.
