Lightning Rounds - New Technologies That Could Change the Built Environment

We gave a presentation to a group of real estate investors. The question: What technology might be interesting if you are imagining how our commercial buildings will be radically different in a decade. Think internet shopping and fulfilment centres.

We picked 4 technology families that are on an exponential growth curve (or several): Energy, Manufacturing, Transport and Space.
