I often do a ‘trends to watch this year’ article but thought I’d do something a bit broader this year.
Here’s some things on my mind this year, and some things I’m not really thinking about.
Thinking about:
Telecoms:
- Private Cellular Networks
- Satellite & HAPS for cellular type communications
Information/data:
- AI Assurance
- Misinformation and it’s use in terrorism and by hostile state actors
Society:
- Future of cities. More social/play/living, less working
- Permission-less work & portfolio careers
Politics & Economy:
- China, in particular Chinese companies growing sales in to the west. Quality has improved massively, costs remain relatively low, internal market becoming saturated.
- India. The biggest English speaking STEM trained population in the world with growing wealth and connectivity.
- Cryptocurrencies. Starting to become more useful and differences appearing between wealth stores (like Gold in the analogue world) and day-to-day use for spending.
Other:
- Sustainable energy (incl. small nuclear)
Not really thinking about:
- Consumer 5G services and devices
- USA, UK, EU politics and economics
- Autonomous cars - still at least 5 years away
- AI in a general broad sense
- Future devices like VR/AR
