Millennial Leaders Each year, there are more graduates, and there will be more and more millennial graduates and founders than ever before. Pinterest, Facebook, Instagram, and Airbnb are household names by now, but these new grads will bring competition. They will also bring collaboration and new techniques to the workforce.
More Commercial and Smart Cities You can expect to see even more urbanization, and cities will begin to compete. Some of the things they will compete for include tourism, foreign investment, and trade. Many businesses will seek to work within cities to expand the ecosystems and make their projects smarter.
Physical Currency The decline of hard cash and even of the credit market will make virtual currency the next big thing. There will also be many types of mobile payments, and you’ll find that international platforms will increase payments that cross borders.
The Consumer Will Be Even More Connected With so many virtual devices, consumers will be instantly connected to everything they need, with virtual information just a button away. With the increase in online ads, mobile channels, and e-marketing, you can expect an influx in all things virtual and connected.
The New Green Is Transparency Data and processes will be even more transparent than ever, with all the new connective platforms and possible collaborations that can come out of this. This, in turn, will hold more and more governments accountable for their strategies and plans and laws.
Advertising Geared for Consumers With the beginning of smart TVs, and other types of connected devices, Big Data will get even bigger. Advertising will be more personalized this way. Personalized music and even screens will give each consumer the perfect experience of the ads.

Peer-to-peer networking will increasingly take on a business tone, and there will be a great need for co-creation, marketplace analytics and sharing, and social networking.
