Tom Goodwin

Tom Goodwin is a British author, innovation consultant, and one of the most provocative voices in the debate about how technology is transforming business, society, and everyday life. His book Digital Darwinism examines how the rapid pace of technological change is forcing businesses to adapt or die, drawing on evolutionary theory and real-world case studies to explore how companies can survive and thrive in a digital environment that rewards agility, innovation, and the willingness to challenge established assumptions. Goodwin gained widespread recognition for his viral observation that the world's largest taxi firm owns no cars, the largest accommodation provider owns no property, and the largest media company creates no content, a summary of the platform economy that has been quoted by business leaders and policymakers worldwide. His writing is characterised by sharp analysis, provocative ideas, and a willingness to challenge both the hype and the complacency that surround digital transformation. Goodwin's approach avoids both breathless techno-utopianism and nostalgic resistance to change, instead offering a realistic, thoughtful framework for understanding how technology is reshaping the business landscape. Digital Darwinism is available as an audiobook, offering listeners a stimulating, practical guide to surviving and thriving in a world of constant technological disruption.
