11. ‘Smart’-everything ● Smart ‘devices’
● Smart Cities
● Smart Contracts
● ‘Smart-washing’
● ...
Moore’s law is still holding and allowing
ever smaller computing power.
There is a big difference between
connecting something because it is
possible versus connecting something
because it is useful.

12. Big Data ● Raw material for new industries
● Cheap storage
● Growth in (cheap) computing power
● Cloud computing
● Machine Learning
● ‘Artificial Intelligence’ (AI)
“Extremely large data sets that may be
analysed computationally to reveal
patterns, trends, and associations,
especially relating to human behaviour
and interactions.”
Thank you Wikipedia

13. Codification of ... ● Money as code (Bitcoin et al)
● Blockchain
● Smart Contracts
● Codified Trust (Social Graph)
● Web of Trust
● Learning to code
Program or be programmed.

14. Robotics ● Robot vs. drone
● Who’s job ?
● STEM education
● Bionics
● Singularity
When engineers and computer scientists
get together ...

15. Clean Tech
Not really just another separate
category.
It has to be part of anything you do.

16. It’s not all about tech 1. Collaboration
2. Open vs Closed
3. Bleeding edge vs Leading edge
4. Ethics
5. Privacy
… some might even say it’s not all about
tech.

17. Let’s do this ‘thing’
together & may the force
be with you ...
