Disruptive Technologies: Give Your Child an Edge in the Digital Future

The world in 10 years will be dramatically different from the world today. Changes in computing technology are accelerating and will disrupt many industries including finance, law, healthcare, insurance, transportation, and real estate. Your child can be an active participant in this exciting revolution.

  • You

You have unique life experience. You may or may not be familiar with technological disruptions, but either way, have already been, still, and will be affected by them. Like everyone else, you had no choice but to adopt e-mail over telegrams, digital over film cameras, smart phones over dial phones, and soon, self-driving cars over taxis, and digital wallets over cash. You sense that the changes are evolving at a faster rate now than ever. You are keen to explore what the future holds for your child. You have questions and are open for dialogue.
