We are looking forward. Current trends indicate how the future will look like – not in a year, two or five, but in the long term. We can anticipate how the development and accession of new economic models will form both existing and emerging industries. Despite radical changes that will lead to demise of some professions and emergence of new ones, we can see a great opportunity in the future.
