Speakers 2026

They have made their careers in different ways and in different faculties, but the Business Insights consultants have one thing in common: a degree from the Faculty of Business Studies. In their presentations, our successful graduates talk about their entry into professional life, their career stages and their current field of activity.

Keynote speech

The Economics of the Irreplaceable
: Why the Human Touch is Becoming Increasingly Important in the Age of AI

Karin Geisendörfer has a special role at Business Insights. Rather than talking about her career path and field of work, as the other consultants will, she will be delivering the keynote address. This will explore the question of how AI is affecting the typical entry-level jobs for graduates of economics degree programmes. Researching, analysing, preparing presentations, evaluating data or compiling reports: many of these tasks can be carried out more quickly and easily using AI. Does that mean a degree in economics is worth less?
