2. Some of the top trends for investor relations in 2015 are below. Please
find what you can use from this, and be sure to think about the
different investments and relations as pertinent to the investing you
do. It’s crucial to keep up with the latest trends, otherwise you run the
risk of falling behind the competition.
3. Millennial Leaders
Each year, there are more graduates, and there will be more and more
millennial graduates and founders than ever before. Pinterest,
Facebook, Instagram, and Airbnb are household names by now, but
these new grads will bring competition. They will also bring
collaboration and new techniques to the workforce.
4. More Commercial and Smart Cities
You can expect to see even more urbanization, and cities will begin to
compete. Some of the things they will compete for include tourism,
foreign investment, and trade. Many businesses will seek to work
within cities to expand the ecosystems and make their projects smarter.
5. Physical Currency
The decline of hard cash and even of the credit market will make virtual
currency the next big thing. There will also be many types of mobile
payments, and you’ll find that international platforms will increase
payments that cross borders.
6. The Consumer Will Be Even More Connected
With so many virtual devices, consumers will be instantly connected to
everything they need, with virtual information just a button away. With
the increase in online ads, mobile channels, and e-marketing, you can
expect an influx in all things virtual and connected.
7. The New Green Is Transparency
Data and processes will be even more transparent than ever, with all
the new connective platforms and possible collaborations that can
come out of this. This, in turn, will hold more and more governments
accountable for their strategies and plans and laws.
8. Advertising Geared for Consumers
With the beginning of smart TVs, and other types of connected devices,
Big Data will get even bigger. Advertising will be more personalized this
way. Personalized music and even screens will give each consumer the
perfect experience of the ads.
9. The Social Is Now Corporate
Finally, sharing will become more business-oriented. Peer-to-peer
networking will increasingly take on a business tone, and there will be a
great need for co-creation, marketplace analytics and sharing, and
social networking. This will be focused on meeting the needs of
businesses rather than individuals, and traditional platforms will take
on more of a marketing perspective as they seek to engage all
networking contacts in promotion of services and work.
