How do we predict the trend?

We are a community of globally minded professionals from a diverse mix of specialisms. We are by nature curious, “exceptionally curious”

Driven by ‘smart’ listening our instinct is fuelled by stories of innovations and their effect on everyday life. What’s catching people’s attention? What developments have caught their eyes?

What are the trendsetters, corporations, foundations, and leading lights doing?  What are the new buzzwords that are entering our everyday vocabulary: corporate social responsibility, sustainable growth, carbon emissions, carbon footprint, carbon neutral, carbon offsetsbuy carbon credits.

We suggest that sometimes a trend is a little more obvious to spot.

So what is the trend?

The Trend is Blue
