Welcome to GDR Futures 88

Matt Poile

With 2023 drawing to a close, it’s time to reflect one last time on the developments we’ve witnessed throughout the year.

In Power Shifts, we’re seeing the emergence of co-operative approaches to energy and infrastructure, with consumers and cities investing in a greener future.

Homegrown Movements highlights the cost-of-living champions showing solidarity with consumers feeling the squeeze, as well as the new selling strategies enabled by online communities.

Checking in on Decentralised Creativity, we unpack the way tech is being used to create layered experiences that add value and bring greater depth to products and experiences.

This quarter, we explore our AI-based trend Silicon-based Lifeforms through the lens of The Self, looking at compassionate forms of tech emerging alongside advances in generative AI and robotics.
