Special Edition: Unlocking the world — what will our ‘next normal’ look like?

Back in the earliest days of the pandemic (March 2020), 6Pages – a new kind of market-intelligence service focused on far-reaching shifts in business & technology – looked ahead and put forward 11 ways in which COVID-19 could be an inflection point that would bring a "new normal."

Many of the predictions – such as supply chains diversifying away from China; booms in remote work, remote medicine, and remote learning; gig workers gaining greater security; growth of video-streaming; and rise of contactless payments – were on the mark.

A year later, in this Special Edition, we analyze how the unlocking of the world will have cascading effects across industries and explore 8 distinct market shifts in a post-pandemic global economy.

There are two dynamics in play. First, the trends that were already underway and accelerated during the pandemic will reset at new levels. Second, rubber bands, when stretched, tend to snap back. We will see people flood back into the world, lifting the economy in the near term with a consumer spending boom.
