The next big thing – opportunities at all levels Electronics Mechanics Sensors Programming; including AI Many other areas

5

Ubiquitous Robotics Wireless linking Remote diagnosis/treatment Much more preventative medicine Implanted diagnosis-delivery and

High Tech

Opportunities

Globalization implosion

End of mega-mass mfg – flawed anyway

Right-sized modular regional

Not just about transportation costs

Return of “craftsmanship”
