3. Living in a different era
“Human inventiveness…has still not found a mechanical process to replace horses as the
propulsion for vehicles”
Petit Journal, a French newspaper December 1893
• Answer was to organise the Paris-Rouen race for horseless carriages, held the
following July.
• The 102 entrants included vehicles powered by steam, petrol, electricity, compressed
air and hydraulics.
• Only 21 qualified for the 126km (78-mile) race, which attracted huge crowds. The clear
winner was the internal combustion engine.
• Over the next century it would go on to power industry and change the world.

5. “The death of the internal combustion engine. It had a
good run. But the end is in sight for the machine that
changed the world.”
Economist August 12th 2017

COMPANIES HAS NEVER BEEN SHORTER

been shorter
• In 1955, Fortune Magazine listed the 500 largest companies in a list that’s become synonymous with success. 60
years later, only 71 of those companies still remain.

have 0.8% of smartphone market share according to IDC
• Yahoo – 2005 they were undisputedly no1 in online advertising with 21% of the market now struggling to make 4th
position behind Google, FB, and Microsoft,

• Centre of the 4th Industrial Revolution
• Lifespan of successful companies has never been shorter
• Marketing and communications is about values in a busy world

product and show off its personality. Firms invest a lot and require ROI on the image
of their brands to foster sales and loyalty.
