In the next 15 years, our world is probably going to change more than it has in the last 150. A new world order is coming - one that blends purpose and profit, brand loyalty and ethics, luxury and sustainability. The rules for success and failure are being rewritten, and there's never been a better time for innovation and experimentation.

In this episode, we explore how we all need to act and think differently - on topics including healthcare, work and mobility. We take a look at the key disruptive forces that are gaining momentum, and consider the new attitudes and actions we all need to adopt to shape the future.

In this episode, we explore Africa’s potential to change the world using unique, homegrown solutions that drive a new kind of digital innovation. As the continent becomes increasingly connected, we examine how digitalisation offers us an opportunity for profound positive change in everything from mobility and shopping, to banking, healthcare and education. We look at how South Africa is driving innovation and technological development across the continent, and why local start-ups can (and perhaps should) aim higher than Silicon Valley. We speak to experts about ways in which Africa can leapfrog its way to a better future, and we investigate how digitalisation and big data can potentially help us all to live better lives.

We can see the future, but how do we create it? As the boundary between physical and digital becomes increasingly blurred yet integrated, the merging of these two worlds offers an unparalleled opportunity for innovation.

In this episode, podcast host, Azania Mosaka and trends analyst, Dion Chang, explore how the Internet of Things can make our lives (and our homes) better, thanks to a new generation of smart products. We also catch a glimpse at the opportunities that lie beyond our physical universe, in a new digital world called the “Metaverse."

As the world begins to shift away from a world of opulence and the meaningless accumulation of wealth, humankind is looking at what nature can teach us about sustainable innovation and what we can do to safeguard our future.

In this episode, podcast host, Azania Mosaka, and certified biomimicry professional and civil engineer, Gamelihle Sibanda unpack the new definition of luxury emerging in our world and delve into a mindset change where luxury and sustainability become synonymous.

In this episode, we take a tour of the cities of the future. We explore ways in which designers of everything from buildings and cars to products and services can help us see the world that is coming.

We ask how the principles of design thinking and circular design can help improve our lives, and how design can synthesise data and analysis into useful, beautiful solutions to better our lives. Finally, we’ll glimpse the magic that can happen when design creativity meets tech.
