Is There a Way Out for Old Industrialized Nations? Chances To Catch up with Global Realities

Peter Olfs, former head of corporate communications at International Siemens AG, Munich, Germany, will present “Is There a Way Out for Old Industrialized Nations? Chances To Catch up with Global Realities” Sept. 9 from 1 to 2:15 p.m. in Luerssen Building 5 at Penn State Berks.

The lecture is part of the fall engineering, business and computing division research interest group series and is free and open to the public.

Olfs theorizes that as a society, we live above our means, the poor keep getting poorer, our values are vanishing and as the blood toll rises, our species is dying out.

His presentation focuses on tasks for developed and developing nations, the future role of universities and practical solutions to combat the issues facing our world.
