No ordinary disruption. In the business world, change means opportunity – to find it you need to know where to look. Witness the real-time startup trends at the World Startup Expo 2016, November 21~November 23, 2016 at Bangalore International Center.
The Asia’s largest congregation, aims to bring together the most happening and disruptive startups and SMEs, along with the expertise of executives from the top corporations, government agencies, incubators, investors, HNWIs, VC funds, banks, students and technology companies from across the world.
Get an insight into the developments that will have the greatest impact on the business world in coming decades. The trends that are fads and one which will stick. The technologies that have the greatest potential to remake today’s business landscape include, Autonomous vehicles-Autonomous cars are coming, and fast, by 2025, the ‘driver-less revolution’ could already be ‘well underway.’ Cloud technology-the growth of cloud technology will change just how much small businesses and startups can accomplish. 3D printing-the manufacturing process will ‘democratize’ as consumers and entrepreneurs start to print their own products. Renewable energy–Wind and solar have never really been competitive with fossil fuels, with the changing trend the International Energy Agency predicts that the sun could surpass fossil fuels to become the world’s largest source of electricity by 2050.
