    We are all familiar at this point of industries that have been upended by recent technology innovations. Whether it is Wikipedia relegating encyclopedias to the history books, Netflix and Redbox taking over the movie rental industry, Uber disrupting the taxi industry, or Airbnb effectively becoming the world’s largest hotel chain, traditional means of serving customers are rapidly giving way to next generation business models. Traditional business models are full of friction and inefficiency because matching supply with demand is done in a slow and costly way -- yesterday’s way. Next generation models, on the contrary, deliver greater value by orchestrating and enriching interactions between independent actors using customer-centric technologies.

    This article describes five technology trends that will you identify potential threats and opportunities for your business:
    Disintermediation
    Internet of Things (IoT)
    Big Data and Predictive Analytics
    Asset Leveraging
