It's the time of lists and trends for the new year. At the 10th anniversary LeWeb 2013, the theme is ' the next 10 years '. LeWeb is an international conference for start-ups and web entrepreneurs, in Paris, bathed in Christmas lights. Only a few speakers venture a concrete prediction for the next ten years. Many point to the unpredicted speed with which the mobile internet now takes a prominent place in our lives.


Forrester Research has it in its genes to predict and comes up with a concrete vision: all companies will become software companies. Forrester means that processes and actions that can be automated will become 'electronic'. To illustrate this prediction: an example of making a journey in the next ten years.

Smart on the road
On the day of departure, the 'Smart Drop' on the fridge reports that the water supply saudi arabia mobile phone number list is dwindling. You indicate that on the day of your return, the refill may take place that evening. In the meantime, the message appears on your smart ring that the Uber taxi will be at the door in ten minutes.

Once at the airport, you receive a push message telling you which gate to go to check in. Biometric identification ensures that check-in and customs are done in a few minutes. The duty-free shop immediately reports with a great offer on a cosmetic product you purchased earlier. Waiting for the plane, you realize that the heating and lighting settings at home still need to be adjusted. You change the times in the Nest app.

The flight is not going smoothly. to the car rental company and the booked hotel. In the hotel, the welcome is electronic and the elevator goes to the right floor. When you arrive at the room, you are recognized and the door opens automatically. In the room, there is the right newspaper and a cold beer ready.

The journey as software
This scenario can first become reality because all data of the booked trip is digital and travels on the mobile internet. In the meantime, the traveler moves around with his smartphone, smart watch, smart heart rate monitor in his smart t-shirt. With these 'Internet of Things' applications he receives the desired digital information. And even more important: the traveler himself continuously sends data (think of location data) to which the provider can respond and take action.
