Signs That The Third Industrial Revolution Is Alive And Well






Today, we are just at the beginning of the Third Industrial Revolution. The Second Industrial Revolution crashed in 2009 and the global economy has been staggering forward, supported by money printed by the central banks. The transition to this new revolution isn't easy, but we've spotted a couple of clear items just today on a prominent financial news station:

  1. Taxi drivers are on strike protesting the advent of ride-sharing. Uber enrollments are soaring;

  2. A 3D-printed car (by Local Motors) was shown on the streets. Everything but the motor was 3D-printed. And, the motor should be possible as well considering SpaceX's new Super Draco rocket engines are 3D-printed.


The revolution is here and gaining momentum.
