- Hybrid work models become the standard. More companies embrace "digital-first" policies
- More AR/VR applications in daily life
- Lab-grown meat and plant-based protein alternatives will become more mainstream
- Investment and adoption of renewable energy technologies like solar, wind, and geothermal will accelerate
- Further development of CRISPR and other gene editing tools
- Companies will prioritize building more resilient and diversified supply chains
- 3D printing technology will continue to evolve, enabling the printing of more complex objects with a wider range of materials
- AI will drive even more targeted advertising and content recommendations
- Drone delivery services will become more common for transporting goods, particularly in rural areas and for time-sensitive deliveries
- Research and development of biodegradable and compostable materials will accelerate
- Robots and automated systems will become more sophisticated and capable
- Increased use of biometrics for identification and authentication
- Further integration of AI into creative fields
- Processing power moves closer to the data source (e.g., smart devices), reducing latency and enabling faster, more efficient applications
- Shifting demographics reshape economies and social structures
- Growing awareness of the potential negative impacts of technology on mental health leads to tools and practices for healthier digital habits
- Increased emphasis on lifelong learning and reskilling
Except: Lab-grown meat and plant-based protein alternatives will become more mainstream
