Megatrend Human potential is unlimited. With advanced machine intelligence, brain–computer interfaces (BCIs), technological developments in science and medicine, and an increasingly borderless world, people’s understanding and expectations of self-realisation, including work, education, and what it means to thrive, will shift. Personal development, how individuals and communities innovate and communicate, and new definitions of self-esteem, autonomy, and stability will bring forth new ideas about parenting, care, love, belonging, inclusion, and community.

Megatrend While a robot is a machine designed to sense, process, act, and communicate, automation refers to technology that executes tasks with minimal human input; enabling the functioning of robots, as well as reasoning and decision-making systems. Driven by profound progress in engineering design, materials science, advanced machine intelligence, and advanced communication networks, robots and automation will increasingly enter many, if not all, industries beyond the automotive, manufacturing, supply chain logistics, and services sectors. This will provide opportunities for efficiency and innovation although there will also be ethical and societal challenges.

Megatrend Digital natives – those who have grown up with digital forms of entertainment, education, and even communications – will naturally usher in increasingly virtual worlds where many ‘real-world’ tasks and behaviours can be replicated and even improved in 3D and 4D environments. The emergence and spread of 5G and 6G networks will enhance autonomous and IoT applications as they offer more reliable, cost-effective and secure high-speed connectivity. As quantum technologies become scalable and reliable, from quantum computing, communications and sensors, immersive experiences will start to feel like reality.

Megatrend Energy is imperative to everyday life and will continue to be so in the future. Technological advances and the growing demand for energy will drive exploration and the pursuit of new and alternative sources of energy. Novel materials and machine intelligence will enhance the generation of existing sources of energy and their transmission and distribution to any place on Earth or in space, pushing the boundaries of the energy ecosystem to levels previously unseen.

Megatrend Progress in advanced machine intelligence, nano- and biotechnology, additive manufacturing, and the IoT will change both what we mean by health and nutrition and how they are experienced. Stemming from the unprecedented developments that will be required to respond to climate change, resource scarcity, and the desire for longevity, this megatrend will improve health in both the younger and the older years. It will reduce, if not eradicate, some communicable and non-communicable diseases and enhance the sustainable use of and access to water and food.
