Uncovering Japan’s new golden age | Jesper Koll | TEDxKyoto

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Economist Jesper Koll, dubbing himself the “last Japan Optimist, draws on the patterns and predictions hidden in today’s swirl of economic data. Along the way he enthusiastically turns skepticism about Japan’s future on its ear. Economist/Japan Optimist Economist Jesper Koll calls himself “the last Japan Optimist”, and perhaps not without reason. From newspaper and news website headlines and opinion pieces to coffeeshop conversations, the popular opinion of Japan’s economic future often tilts towards skepticism and worry. Jesper Koll, does not agree with these naysayers. Elegantly wielding a swirl of data and detail and infusing it with snappy good humor, Jesper argues that Japan’s future is bright and growing brighter. A resident of Japan for the past 28 years, Jesper has turned his keen mind towards sleuthing out the hidden patterns and predictions found in the numbers that surround us here in Japan, and throughout the world. His insights and enthusiasm have enabled him to lend his skills and voice to a large number of world-class companies as well as to several Japanese government advisory committees. Jesper Koll encourages us to look beyond popular interpretations of what our numbers mean, and find the deeper—and perhaps more hopeful—truths within. About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
