Are you already wondering what to expect for 2020? I’ve compiled for you 2020 predictions, as well as much more for the future beyond 2020.
This series is a regular annual feature on this blog. Like last year, I will publish future predictions around 1 specific topic every week.
2020 predictions & beyond
So, this series of 2020 prediction + the future beyond that, will be published weekly.
This post covers predictions in general from 2020 through 2117 (which I doubt we’ll be around to validate).
My next posts over the coming weeks will dive into science, consumer behavior, ad spend in every detail, mobile marketing, television, local advertising, social media, technology, wearables and many other topics – stay tuned!
