nature of just arrangements and the distribution of power
applicable to the entire world
Protectionism Climate change
Accelerating structural change
The second machine age…and more
– Rapid technological change
– Beyond globalization
– Shift of the economic center of gravity to the East
– Urban world
– Climate awareness, and
– Energy transition.
Second machine age
• We are now living a technological revolution based on digital hardware,
software and networks the nature of which is different: it is
– exponential
• Moore´s law: number of transistors in an integrated circuit doubles every 2 years,
• Data storage: doubles every 12 months bits per square inch
• Optical phibre: doubles every 9 months bits per second
– digital ❨the marginal cost of scaling up production is zero) and
– combinatorial ❨for example drones are the result of the combination of
data processing, sensors and digital imaging technologies). Although it
has already produced many changes, its end is not near.
Digital revolution
• Nature
– Data processing
– Platforms
– Storage
– Sensors
– Artificial intelligence
– Robots
• Skill intensive
• Economics
– Non rival
– Zero marginal costs

Beyond globalization
Trade and finance did not recover from the Great
Recession however
Data flows are increasing exponentially and he world is
more connected than ever

Bottom up national contributions
Ratchet mechanism
Cilmate finance
Developing
countries are
the key
Energy transition
• Increase in demand based on middle income and developing countries
• Slower growth due to energy efficiency gains
• Abundant resources
• US largest producer of oil and natural gas
• Very rapid increase of low cost variable renewables
• New business models
• Transition costs are unavoidable: example of Germany and China
Keys uncertainties
• Electricity storage
• Transport
• Electric mobility
• Driveless cars
• Car sharing
• Car pooling
Conclusion
• Accelerating structural change in the early 21st century is disruptive
• Produced by several forces operating at the same time
• Digital revolution
• Rapid adoption of digital technologies
• Exponential growth
• Combination of technologies- devices: data processing, transmission
and storage, artificial intelligence, robots, etc..
• Driven by markets and economics
• Transition will involve costs
• Costs will not impact all companies- countries in the same way
• Adaptation is easier in fast growing countries
• Often accelerating structural change is blamed for the wrong reasons
