InnovationTHE STATE OF INNOVATION: NEW!
10+ Tech • 6 Mega-Trends • 2016

Change has never before happened so fast. But the real story is that it will never be this slow again.

In just a handful of business quarters, the near future has shifted from smartphones to smart things, from apps to algorithms… and from billions of devices to the next trillion-dollar industry that is (BIG!) data.

Where mobile made us wireless, Immersive Technologies—spanning Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Realities—are giving rise to screen-less computing. Through a watershed of smart, connected products, all “dumb objects” will swiftly be turned into novel reminders of the once-great divide between our physical and digital worlds.

The State Of Innovation

Interfaces move from graphical to conversational. Displays become wearable. User navigation goes gestural. And software becomes all but “invisible” as Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things, and Big Data transform any product, place, or proximity into vibrant computing platforms.

Robots won’t take the jobs we love (but will take away the tasks that we hate!). Rather than slaves to the smart machines, AIs will free-up our time by making our machines far smarter.

Moreover, next-gen tech will simultaneously fulfill the most trivial of needs and the most profound: for the same drone technology that will deliver piping-hot pizza to you in 30 minutes will also send life-saving medical supplies… 10 minutes sooner than ambulances can arrive.

While robots will entertain our youth segments, they’ll also help us better care for our elderly populations. And whereas Virtual Reality will immerse us in 3D worlds; it will also enable first-rate medical care to the third world.
