Cities and technology in the 20th Century
“The Second Machine Age”, by Andrew McAfee and Erik Brynjolfsson, summarised in
https://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/united-states/2014-06-04/new-world-order
Throughout the 20th Century UK cities that did not adapt
their economies to new technology lost jobs, employers,
residents and investment.
“Cities Outook 1901”, Centre for Cities:
http://www.centreforcities.org/publication/cities-outlook-1901/
Since the 1980s as computers spread into homes and
businesses, growth in GDP has not created growth in US
household wealth. New wealth is primarily being captured
by the owners of “platform businesses” such as Amazon,
Apple, Uber and Airbnb.

Closing thoughts
• New business models are just as important as new technologies
• If you’re not a natural entrepreneur, look to the academic literature: service
science and platform business models
• It’s not rocket science: do we create enough value to pay for the technology by
getting the right thing to the right place at the right time?
• D3: “dirty, dull or dangerous”
• Population growth and climate change will transform the economics of resources
• Government aspirations will (eventually) lead to changes in industry regulation
and public sector procurement
• New opportunities are appearing in the supply chains of traditional businesses
• There’s never been a better time to be a tech startup – but you need to think like
Matthew Boulton, as well as thinking like James Watt
