Welcome to the digital age, where big data, analytics and algorithms know you better than you know yourself. If he's right, the way we do business, organise government, educate our children and interact with each other is about to change, and for the better. More than 20 billion devices already link farms, mines, the electricity grid, production lines, transport networks, warehouses and recycling systems to the internet. This same phenomenon soon bulldozed the business models of the movie companies, print newspapers, television and book publishing. Zero marginal cost is crossing over from the digital world to disrupt the business models of industries in the real world, like manufacturing, energy and education.
