So here we go.

Here is a timeline of innovation.

And you can see it goes into the 1700s.

And our chief futurist, Brett Winton, in conjunction with academics, pulled this together.

And what you're seeing here

is the impact of innovation on productivity.

And you can see in this time we've had two great eras.

The first one was in the late 1800s, early 1900s.

Telephone, electricity, internal combustion engine.

Huge boost in GDP growth.

And in fact, prior to that, for the 400 years prior to that, real GDP growth had been averaging about 0.6% per year.

Very slow.

After that, we went into a 125-year period of 3% real GDP growth.

So a five-fold increase from 0.6 to 3%.

You have to move forward to today to see multiple innovation platforms evolving at the same time.

So for the first time in 125 years.

This time there are five platforms, not three major platforms, and they involve 15 different technologies.

This is very important in terms of how to research and analyze the world.

It's not going to be by sector or industry anymore.

It is going to be by technology, because technology is permeating every sector, every industry, and blurring the lines between them.
