The 5 global megatrends
Demographic and
social change
Within the next minute the
global population will rise by
145.
Shift in economic
power
On current trends, the
aggregate purchasing power of
the ‘E7’ emerging economies –
China, India, Russia, Brazil,
Mexico, Turkey and Indonesia
– will overtake that of the G7 by
2030.
Rapid Urbanisation
In 1800, 2% of the world’s
population lived in cities.
Now it’s 50%. Every week,
some 1.5 million people
join the urban population,
through a combination of
migration and childbirth.
Climate change and
resource scarcity
At current rates of
consumption we may have
just half a century’s worth of
oil and gas left.
Technological
breakthroughs
The impacts of digital disruption
are now so pervasive that no
business in any sector – from
the smallest family business to
largest multinational – is
immune from them.
