MINITRENDS

Minitrends are emerging trends that promise to become significantly important in the next two to five years, but which are not recognized or appreciated by the general public or most businesses. These emerging trends can be extremely valuable to those alert enough to recognize them, perceptive enough to appreciate their potential worth, and clever enough to reap their full potential.

ForeWord Reviews

This title offers a new take on possible product development and investment avenues.”
Library Journal

“MINITREND should quickly become a—if not the—standard work for the futurist’s search for business applications, and therefore for a wide range of social, economic, and business consequences. "
Joseph Coates, Foresight Network’s Futurist of the Year

“MINITRENDS explains a set of practical-but-powerful tools and mindsets, offers the reader a rich array of accessible, authoritative information sources, and spells out purposeful processes by which a variety of practitioners can use the resulting foresight. HEROIC!”
David Pearce Snyder, Strategic Forecaster & Contributing Editor, The Futurist
