Google Meet link: https://meet.google.com/nka-oqtp-cbi
Date: Tuesday 8 September 2026
Time: 11:00 – 12:00 CEST
Host: Laura Vermeulen & Roland Rutten (Every Second) & Eve
Facilitator: Wendy Morée (TechTogether.AI)The "Consumer" is dead; the "Creator" has arrived. Gen Z and Gen Alpha are rejecting finished products to build their own. At the same time, the industry pricebook is rapidly shifting from user-based pricing to Result as a Service. As an executive or board member, you might not always be hands-on with the latest tech, but you are responsible for leading the strategic direction and governing your organization's future.
In this session, we sit down with Laura Vermeulen and Roland Rutten, founders of Every Second (www.everysecond.group). Roland combines his background as a political advisor (including for Wopke Hoekstra) with Eve (www.trendsofeve.com): their proprietary pre-trend intelligence AI system. Eve detects early signals from government, market, and society, calculating which pre-trends will become relevant for the future—tailored to the speed and depth your executive challenge requires. Together with Laura, they will show how to turn these political and societal pre-trends directly into actionable boardroom strategy and C-level decision-making.
