Abstract: Abstract This section looks, very briefly, at other emerging disruptive technologies, which although not part of the digital ecosystem, are prominent technologies driving disruption more widely and should not be ignored given their impact on driving changing business models. These include nanotechnologies that will drive the march towards miniaturisation and enable advances in wearable technology and healthcare more generally; Genome analysis that has the potential to revolutionalise how we can tackle life changing diseases through targeted interventions; Quantum computing that will lead to a step change in the power of computing capabilities that will enable further innovations and drive new applications, as well as posing serious challenges to cyber security; 3D printing that will revoluntionalise the manufacturing of products and potentially refine and redistribute geographic economic clusters; and Renewal energy which has the potential to change how we produce and consume energy that has the potential to change the global order.
