Issue Going All-Digital

Summary

Going All-Digital asks what would happen if the world's largest companies were entirely virtual. In this future, companies are born in digital realities and operate there completely. These virtual firms go on to generate more revenue than their physical counterparts. The opportunity sits within the Digital Realities megatrend and draws on the digital economy, entrepreneurship and international collaboration, supported by advanced connectivity, cybersecurity and distributed ledgers. Its keywords include algorithmic audits, decentralised autonomous organisations, digital assets, digitally native brands and micro-entrepreneurship, with consumer goods, finance, immersive technologies and entertainment among the sectors most affected.
