Connected Intelligence: Modern Day Renaissance

We are well into the Connected Intelligence growth curve. Evidence of its impact is all around us. We are making tremendous progress on each layer of the stack. We are already at Gbps jumping on to 5G soon. The number of sensors continue to increase by double digits. The coming together of different domains and disciplines is reminiscent of the European Renaissance that transformed the human experience for centuries to come. How do you observe a transformation while you are in it? What does the future hold? How will we define winners? What are the risks and threats that could derail the vision?
