Wilmington, Delaware — Ludwig Melik, CEO of Planbox, the world’s leading agile innovation management platform, has been accepted into Forbes Technology Council, an invitation-only community for world-class CIOs, CTOs, and technology executives.
Ludwig was vetted and selected by a review committee based on the depth and diversity of his experience. Criteria for acceptance include a track record of successfully impacting business growth metrics, as well as personal and professional achievements and honors.
“We are honored to welcome Ludwig into the community,” said Scott Gerber, founder of Forbes Councils, the collective that includes Forbes Technology Council. “Our mission with Forbes Councils is to bring together proven leaders from every industry, creating a curated, social capital-driven network that helps every member grow professionally and make an even greater impact on the business world.”
As a member of the Council, Ludwig will share his expert insights in original business articles on Forbes.com, and contribute to published Q&A panels alongside other experts.
Ludwig’s contributions to the Council will focus on how organizations can innovate more consistently, from strategy and culture to systems, sharing stories and lessons learned based on more than 20 years of working closely with some of the world’s leading brands. As one the authors of the Future-Fit Manifesto, Ludwig will also share his insights on the values and principles of this collective declaration, designed to promote a growth mindset that fosters better adaptivity, creativity, and resilience among people, teams, and organizations.
“What better time and venue to talk about technology, innovation, and everything in between. As we witnessed and continue to experience, change comes at a moment’s notice and impacts everyone in its path. Organizations need to stay ahead and top of the market, pay close attention to shifting dynamics, and be ready to jump on new opportunities as they emerge. It’s not enough to just respond — you have to be fit for the future, and that’s what I intend to shed light on as a member of the Forbes Technology Council,” said Ludwig.
