Think big!

"If you see a human as he is, you make him small. But if you see him as he could be, you make him huge!".  This statement, once uttered by a wise woman at Evonik, became a guiding principle for Heinz-Günter Lux. Since he is now involved with blockchain technology, he has noticed that this can apparently also apply to technologies. As an experienced manager, however, he knows that this potential can only be realized with attention, time and patience. Just as you have to deal with people, he devotes all his experience to Blockchain technology and its potential use cases. The potential for change that comes with blockchain is "huge" and affects virtually all areas of business, finance, politics, and society. Evonik offers him and his team ideal conditions for testing this technology in practice. In a first major use case, several million euros could be cleared and booked bidirectionally with a business partner in real time using programmable euros. And that is just the beginning.  The pipeline of creative ideas and applications of blockchain with direct customer benefits is well filled, and that makes Heinz-Günter Lux confident. Evonik is already one of the most important pioneers of blockchain technology. Click here to learn more about the blockchain topic.
