World population has reached its first billion around 1804. In the
last 2 centuries , the next 6 billions have been reached and
another 4 will be delivered by the end of this century. However,
population growth is starting to slow down.. The annual
population growth between the 3rd billion and the 7th billion was
1.7% while the expected growth from now till 2100 will be 0.5%.
Population growth will be driven mainly by Asia and Africa which
will represent 51% and 29% respectively by 2062 of total global
population

2009/2010. However, with this pace of growth it is likely that
by 2050, the urban population will be double that of the rural

With the rapid urbanization, infrastructure spending is likely to
go up as new cities are being built. In the past 20 years, China
has built on its own a residential space that is equivalent
between 1985 and 2011 to the land area of the Netherlands, or
in 2011 alone, more residential floor space than the entire
residential building stock in Australia. According to research
presented by the Financial Times, China’s main demographic
segment in demand of housing (25-49) will start declining soon
just in time when a huge segment of new housing comes to
market

The proportion of the world’s urban population living in slums
has fallen from nearly 40% a decade ago to less than a third
today. But the absolute number of slum dwellers around the
world is still rising. High population density around slums (and
megacities) especially in poorer areas are a source of concern

The threshold of what Earth can sustainably provide was
reached in 1976. Currently, we are using the equivalent of
over 1.5 Earths—in other words, exceeding what nature can
provide by more than half. It is predicted that if the world
continues on that pace that we would need almost 3 earths by
2050. Which means it will take the earth 3 years then to
regenerate what has been used in one year

The rise of megacities is not a new phenomenon as much of
the developed cities such as London and New York started to
grow in the nineteenth century. However, the rate of growth of
megacities today is much faster than in the past and the rise of
megacities has not been gradual like in the developed world.
This puts further pressure on the availability and quality of
water in many of the new developing world cities

Water scarcity is on the rise with more than half of the global
population set to be living in water stressed and water scarce
areas. The nature of water insecurity varies by region where in the
MENA region it is mostly driven by physical scarcity while in parts
of Africa it is mostly economic. Irrespective of its nature, water
security is likely to impact economic activity dramatically
particularly given its prevalence across the world’s largest and
most populous economies

connect sensors to objects or things on the Internet, to extract
and analyze growing amounts of data, and then to use that
analysis in both automated and non-automated processes
promises enormous potential for further economic growth

Sharing economy businesses based on a “peer-to-peer” (P2P)
model are increasingly replacing traditional markets, with top
performers attracting subscribers and funding at exponential rates.-
thus taking away business from traditional models as well as
creating new business. While traditional rental industries are
unlikely to disappear in the foreseeable future, their growth will be
relatively sluggish – for example, while the car rental market is
projected to grow at a CAGR of 2% through 2025, the car sharing
market will grow over 11 times faster
