Materialization

WAVE 5

The phrase ‘3D Printing’ does not do justice to one of the biggest approaching waves. ‘Materialization’ will digitize products in the

same way media has been digitize.

This will democratize the creation and consumption of products in everything from

consumer products, cars, planes to our homes, food and bodies.

Ray Kurzweil predicts that by around 2040 we will reach the singularity. That is when smarter than human intelligence will exist

and be able to replicate and enhance itself.

That’s 30 years from now.

When the storm is coming, the surfers get their surf boards because they know the

waves will be even bigger.

What’s your surf board? It needs to be the triangle of your personal brand, your

company brands and your product brands. Hold on to this, and you can surf from one

wave to the next.
