Netlight as knowledge partner to Unlocked: a new forum for the most important questions facing business leaders

A new survey by the news tech company RLVNCE among 400 Swedish business leaders reveals that many companies struggle to translate digitalisation and AI into concrete business value. Unlocked is now launching a forum where leading experts, decision-makers and business leaders come together for discussions and knowledge exchange on business, technology and the future of leadership. The initiative is founded by RLVNC, with IT and Management consultancy Netlight as a partner.

Despite substantial investments in digitalisation and AI, only around one third of Swedish companies report having AI solutions in operation. The technology is evolving rapidly, but the answers to how it creates value go beyond technology alone. This is the foundation for Unlocked. A first conversation on AI and business starts in a podcast and develops further through articles, video, panel discussions, and newsletters, ultimately culminating in a live event. Together, these formats create a cohesive knowledge ecosystem where ideas and perspectives can grow and intersect.

Unlocked is built on a simple idea: new perspectives emerge when people dare to move beyond the models and contexts they usually operate within. What happens when philosophy challenges technology? When economics meets human behaviour? When cultural history, politics and science engage with business perspectives on innovation and value creation?

The ambition is not to create consensus or provide yet another definitive answer. On the contrary, Unlocked aims to spark friction between different viewpoints, opening up space for new questions, ideas, and unexpected opportunities.

“As a knowledge partner and with experience from the forefront of technology since 1999, Netlight has helped companies build business and transform organisations through digital transformation and AI. Today, we see a great need to help companies move from big ambitions to concrete business benefits, and with Unlocked, we are creating a platform for exactly that,” says Hanna Lagerholm, Managing Partner at Netlight.

The goal is to create a long-term meeting place where different perspectives lead to new ideas, collaborations and initiatives that help organisations navigate an increasingly complex future.

The content and conversations will live in multiple formats and be published on the Swedish business and economics media platforms Realtid and Dagens PS.
