7. The Third Platform for Industry Growth
The ICT industry is in the midst of
a once every 20–25 years shift to
a new technology platform for
growth and innovation. We call it
the Third Platform — built on
mobile devices and apps, cloud
services, mobile broadband
networks, Big Data analytics, and
social technologies.
By 2020, when the ICT industry
reaches $5 billion–$1.7 billion
larger than it is today — at least
80% of the industry's growth will
be driven by these third-platform
technologies — an explosion of
new solutions built on the new
platform along with rapidly
expanding consumption of all of
the above in emerging markets.
