Business Trends for 2018

Each year, we put together information on business trends - what are the growth industries and specific business ideas that will have years of impact for us/the economy.  For this we go to the experts - organizations that produce future-oriented information.  For business owners, specifically entrepreneurs, this trend information is insightful.  Industries that were not even dreamed of a few years ago are now making the news.

The best sight for trends - U.S. and Global - and one I subscribe to, is jwtintelligence.com.  JWT stands for J. Walter Thompson, one of the best marketing and branding organizations in the world.  They have people who are responsible for trend-spotting (sounds like a fun position).  Check out their Future 100 list (see Future 100 for 2018).
