Sean Donnellt says, “Last week I attended Wired 2016, along with other assorted academics, scientists and all sorts of curious minds in between.

This two-day affair is designed to encourage attendees to abandon their comfort zones, discover the world’s most disruptive minds and organisations and examine future technology.

One of the speakers at the event was Taavet Hinrikus, CEO of financial services disruptor TransferWise.

In an age of tech startups aiming to disrupt entire industries, Hinrikus had three pieces of advice which apply for any organisation be they disruptor or traditional incumbent:

  1. Don’t get greedy
  2. Focus on the customer
  3. Keep asking ‘What if?’”.
