The Emergence of Smart Business

We have entered an era where people, businesses and social organizations are beginning to understand the profound impacts awareness, collaboration and intelligence will bring.  In the not too distant future, hundreds of millions, then billions of individuals and businesses with billions and then trillions of smart communicating devices will stretch the boundaries of today's business and social systems and create potential to change the way we work, entertain and innovate. These forces are informing a trend we call "Smart Business."

Peer-to-peer information and network integration are combining to create new modes of collaboration and value creation. People, information and technology are becoming more connected, distributed and pervasive enabling the convergence of physical and virtual worlds. Networks will integrate knowledge, people and things into systems that enable awareness, creativity, better decision making and, ultimately, higher value solutions.
