CURRENT TOPIC: TECHNOLOGICAL FORCES
The Inevitable: Understanding the 12 Technological Forces That Will Shape Our Future
Much of what will happen in the next thirty years is inevitable, driven by technological trends that are already in motion. We will dig into trends changing the future of categories —from virtual reality in the home to an on-demand economy to artificial intelligence embedded in everything we manufacture. The focus will be on these key trends as outlined in the book—interacting, cognifying, flowing, screening, accessing, sharing, filtering, remixing, tracking, and questioning—and demonstrate where we see them developing now.
Past Books and Areas of Focus
Ingredients
This book exemplifies the emerging ingredient trends we see impacting the food and beverage, beauty and wellness categories. We will focus on ingredient trends (and the reasons why consumers are interested in them) featured throughout the book. This includes CBD and cannabis as well as emerging superfood and enhanced/functional ingredients that promote wellness and beauty.
Self Care
We’ve selected a book that concentrates on self-care, and our goal is to create a dialogue with trend thought leaders around how trends in self care can and will affect your industry. In addition to a thoughtful discussion around self-care and some of the main themes of the book, Ebco Trends will present self-care trends that we have uncovered in our research that are shaping the future across industries.
