EIU Global Trend Forecast
The esteemed Economist Intelligence Unit has a new global report, Foresight 2020: Economic, industry and corporate trends that attempts to answer a part of this question. You can download it for free at their site here.
15 years out. That's not so far. Think back 15 years to 1991. Hmmm. Hardly any internet. No web. No MP3's or DVD's. E-mail was internal and rarely global, print still ruled, ...
What a change the next 15 years will bring.
Anyway, a free EIU report is nothing to sneeze at. Read it as an update and complement to the OCLC Environmetal scan.
