We now live in a world of exponential technological change.
2017 is the TURNING POINT of this Exponential Change.

Change appeared to go slow, but now everything will now begin to change,
all at the same time.

Everything is abundantly available. Everything goes to the cloud. Money. Books. Governments. Cities. Content becomes essentially free.

Image recognition by computers is becoming better than humans.
Computers recognize voices, not just speech, already today.

You can ask anything, using smart ”agents”

By 2019 websites and apps become less important. In 2019, 20% of all brands will start abandoning their mobile apps, in favor of progressive and instant apps
