Convergence
Five converging forces –
mobile, social media, data,
sensors and location – are
reshaping our lives and will have
profound effects on each of us
individually, in the workplace and
in our society at large during the
coming decade.

Imagine going to a meeting with people who
do you not know. As you walk into the room,
your smartwatch triggers a sensor in the
doorway, which now lets everyone in the room
know you have arrived. As a portfolio about
you flashes in front of their eyes, a quick
introduction to each person in the room
simultaneously scrolls inside your specially
enabled eyeglasses.
