It is widely accepted that the key to rising incomes for workers,
for investors, and (indirectly) for welfare recipients is
innovation. New ideas provide opportunities for investment in new
products, new processes, and new markets. Exploitation of these
opportunities by intrapreneurs and entrepreneurs gives rise to
increases in labor productivity, which in turn lead to higher
primary incomes for workers and investors and, via government
redistributive mechanisms, larger transfers to welfare recipients.
Since technology is the driver of innovation and the key to the
subsequent economic and distributional benefits of this innovation,
there is a need for researchers and businesspersons to have access
to up-to-date information on emerging technologies and the business
opportunities they provide. Technological Breakthroughs and Future
Business Opportunities in Education, Health, and Outer Space
discusses the economic, social, and cultural benefits that new
technologies can provide in multidisciplinary industries with a
unique emphasis on looking towards the impacts of these
technologies across the next two decades. Within this theme, the
book discusses the recent trends, future developments, and business
opportunities surrounding new technologies including information
technology and biotechnology. Additionally, the book investigates
recent demands and disruptions in the health and education sectors
as well as recent developments and forthcoming opportunities in the
outer space sector and how newer technologies can enable and meet
the growing demands of these industries. While covering all these
technologies and their applications, this book is an ideal
reference work for entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs, teachers,
technologists, analysts, IT specialists, engineers, policymakers,
medical professionals, government officials, space agencies,
financial planners, public officials, and researchers and students
working in areas that include but are not limited to technology,
education, public health, medicine, business and management,
aeronautics, and public policy.
