My tips & predictions for 2014
- Wearable technology (like Google Glass) merging with more fashion companies to go mainstream for consumer brands. - Smart machines will proliferate (like IBM Watson). - Internet of everything (IoE). Expect internet to conquer everything, cars, housing devices, plant watering systems and not just your laptop. - Apps make the world go round! Millions of applications easily searchable hitting your screens every day. The long tail of mobile apps and free competition will decide on who monetizes or not the idea behind the application. Tailored apps for all needs and human desires will be filling Apple Store and Google Play. - 3D Printers will turn entire industries upside - down and will disrupt all current lines of manufacturing, production, logistics, etc. Companies can benefit from cost efficient prototyping through 3D printing. - Crowdfunding.
