Just as electric light became competitive with gas light a century ago, renewable energy and electric cars are becoming competitive with technologies based on fossil fuels. However, for new technologies to become truly transformative there is a need to develop a new generation of batteries to power them.
Battery technologies are central to delivering significant advances in a broad range of industries ranging from electrical vehicles to electronic devices for renewable energy. The increasing reliance on battery storage is driving enormous demand. This has catapulted battery technology to the top of the priority list for many players, leading to a massive boom in investment. Overall, battery applications are projected to become $90 billion plus market. While smart phones, smart homes and even smart wearables are growing ever most advanced, they are still limited by power.
Group Futurista is all set to organize a ‘Future of Batteries Summit’ in February 2020 in France. Participants will get an update on how latest technology can improve energy density, safety, battery lifespan and aid in cost reduction, thus making sure players in the market take a long-term view and ensure that they are focusing on the right technologies and business models for their organizational success.

IoT Technology along with Big Data Analytics is well on its way to transform Supply Chain Management. It will lend a helping hand to businesses from being reactive to proactive. The future of IoT is predicted to lead a 15% productivity increase in the Supply Chain industry. Many logistic experts are using new resources to enhance their supply networks, minimizing cost and looking for opportunities to generate revenue. The Next Generation Digital Supply Chain will create a disruption and will require companies to rethink the way to design their Supply Chain.
‘Future of Supply Chain Summit’ organized by Group Futurista will be held in December 2019 in Amsterdam. Industry leaders from around the globe will come together and discuss how Supply Chain can be made faster, flexible, granular and precise.

The Next Generation Food Technology embraces a simple concept of minimizing the use of resources, pollution and waste, while feeding a population of 9.6 billion. The UN Food and Agricultural Organisation predicts that the agricultural Industry will need to produce 70% more food, while using only 5% more land to feed the drastically growing population.
Digital agriculture can provide solutions to issues, which will not only change how farmers farm but will essentially, transform every part of the agribusiness value chain. Precision Farming one of the key aspect of digital agriculture enables farmers to accurately measure, map and manage any variations in a field to significantly increase yields while lowering the production cost.
Group Futurista is organizing a ‘Future of Food Summit’ in March 2020 in Lisbon, where futurists and innovative minds will acquaint us with novel business strategies, product designs and customer preferences associated with Digital Agriculture and methods to overcome the major challenge of sharing and using data.
