Episode 3

Episode 3 - The Quantum Revolution - Kaku investigates the advances of quantum physics and the effects it could have on the average human life. Kaku looks at the work of science fiction writers and the way that many concepts conceived for entertainment could in fact become reality. Kaku also speculates about the effects that such technology may have on the future of the human race.

List of technologies:

Computer on a Chip (2017) The high-end microprocessor of 2020 will be an entire computer on a single chip: processor and main memory versus the many processor chips and DRAM chips of today, predicts David Patterson. Submitted by David Patterson, a professor of computer science at the University of California, Berkeley.

Mobile Wallet (2017) Kai-Fu Lee predicts that the credit card era will be replaced by mobile phones serving as "mobile wallets." Submitted by Kai-Fu Lee, the former head of Google China and the founder of Innovation Works, a Chinese investment firm.

'Halo of Data' By 2016, Georges Nahon predicts, personalized descriptions of what and who is around you will be available at the push of a button on your smartphone, and also by default. A "halo of data" will constantly accompany you. This represents the next step beyond augmented reality. Submitted by Georges Nahon, chief executive of Orange Labs and founder of the Orange Institute.

programmable organisms (2034) By 2030, Drew Endy predicts, reprogrammable tissue and organismal development will arrive. Scientists will design a life on a computer and print it out in a laboratory. Submitted by Drew Endy, an assistant professor in bioengineering at Stanford.

WiFi to the Brain (2060) Humans will be able to have a continuous wireless connection to the internet directly to their brain, granting nearly unlimited memory and communication ability, provided you don't lose the signal. Submitted by D. Moysey · Boston, Mass.

Why Strategic Foresight?

In many industries, companies are faced with disruptions from emerging technologies, from the political and legislative environment, from alternative business models or from socio-cultural shifts. In this environment a strong forward view is crucial to maintain competitiveness. The implementation of a Strategic Foresight practice, therefore, is becoming more important and popular especially in multinational enterprises.

What is Strategic Foresight?

Strategic Foresight is a combination of futures methods and those of strategic management. It is defined as the ability to create a forward view and to use the insights in organizationally useful ways, for example, to develop strategies and to explore new markets, products and services. The underlying assumption is that changes and discontinuities in an organization’s environment can be perceived before becoming effective. Strategic Foresight deals with the identification, assessment and usage of those weak signals to prolong the reaction time and make strategic action possible instead of short-term reaction. Hence, Strategic Foresight aims at enabling an organization to capitalize on emerging opportunities and to avoid getting surprised by upcoming threats.
