WEBINAR - More Than Smart Meters The Digital Transformation Of The Power Industry by Lux Research Podcast

Lux Research's Senior Analysts Katrina Westerhof and Yuan-Sheng Yu discuss the global energy transition and Trump's America-First energy plan. One of the largest topics that our clients and readers continue to be interested in is the role the U.S. will play in the global energy landscape moving forward, but even more so how Trump’s presidency might have immediate impacts in the near-term.

One of the most difficult challenges within technology scouting and strategic advice is anticipating trends. When will a particular technology emerge from labs into the marketplace in an impactful way? Current approaches, which include tracking startup funding, investments, acquisitions, patent filings, and monitoring news, are either too slow (that is, they give an actionable signal too late) or they suffer from too much noise. To address this issue, we have developed a new, 100% data-driven methodology that gives a clearer signal about rising innovation years ahead of conventional methods of monitoring technology. The Lux Tech Signal is powered by our newly developed Lux Intelligence Engine and draws upon datasets that include intellectual property (IP) inflection points and early-stage project funding. In this report, we apply the Lux Tech Signal to quantify how “hot” are 19 different areas of digital innovation, ranging from artificial intelligence (AI) to health sensors to drones to Internet of Things (I

Chemical and oil companies risk major disruptions if they ignore accelerating trends away from oil as a transportation fuel, its major use. Regional change – for instance, a sharp decrease in oil demand in Europe – will make European refinery and downstream chemical production redundant as oil companies compete for the commodity chemical space. Alternatives will break oil’s transportation monopoly no later than the 2030s, and companies that fail to modify their business model aggressively in the next decade face extinction. This webinar details threats to oil as a transportation fuel and projects flattening demand based on maturing competitive technologies rather than the uncertain promise of regulations. While most industries define “long term” as three to five years, the long payoff of oil and chemical production assets requires a longer view.

Microbiome research has exploded over the past decade, as indicated by a dramatic rise in publications on the topic. The microbiome plays a complex, but crucial, role in the health of all living things – and that role is still poorly understood. Start-ups are flocking to the space on the belief that it has the potential to drastically change the landscape of multiple industries. This virtual fireside chat will help identify hotspots of activity within the microbiome space, and call out five distinct industries poised for disruption: food, agriculture, medicine, personal care, and animal health. We will assess activity using Lux’s proprietary analysis tools to identify global patents and identify winning developers.
