The trends in this report — while buttressed by data and evidence — are meant to shake our faith in steady trend lines. They point to areas where conditions are ripe for discontinuity and disruption. This report asks us, in effect, to “watch these spaces,” and expect to see surprises and opportunities. In that spirit, here are 14 tech trends that deserve close attention in the first year of the 2020s

Every Western institution was unprepared for the coronavirus pandemic, despite many prior warnings. This monumental failure of institutional effectiveness will reverberate for the rest of the decade, but it's not too early to ask why, and what we need to do about it... Our nation and our civilization were built on production, on building. We built roads and trains, farms and factories, then the computer, the microchip, the smartphone, and uncounted thousands of other things that we now take for granted, that are all around us, that define our lives and provide for our well-being. There is only one way to create the future we want for our own children and grandchildren, and that's to build.

WHY IT MATTERS: I spent the better part of my life moving physical processes in the digital world. Now the pendulum shifts and we must pour our engineering energy into building things locally - using digital processes, techniques, technologies, from 3D printing to robots to IOT. This is the next 20 years.

WHY IT MATTERS: follow the link below to the June 10 story and listen to how a school in Montreal has 6 3dprinters for their students to use and build the best spinning wheel. The potentials are endless: science, art, architecture, etc.. Why don't we do the same in offices ie. equip them with those small devices to let employees try new designs of things they struggle with on a daily basis?
