10 Billion People by 2050

Each month, Tony Uphoff, visionary CEO of Thomasnet.com, joins
Cloud Wars Live for a recurring segment. “Uphoff on Industry”
will explore the innovations, upheavals, and breakthroughs
reshaping the world of manufacturing and industrial markets. Join
Tony and me as we discuss disruptive new trends in the
digital-industrial world: not just how products are designed,
sourced and manufactured, but also the new ways in which
industrial companies are getting up to speed on marketing, sales
and customer experience.


Episode 4


In this episode: Tony and I discuss how we’ve been fortunate to
have a ringside seat on the transformation of technology – and
how if you aren’t fluent, you’re going to be left behind. Next,
we discuss how ThomasNet.com has 72,000 categories, and every
second someone’s buying a product or service. Tony goes on to say
how the Baby Boom generation and the Millennial generation are
now 50/50 – and how there will be 10 billion people on the planet
by the year 2050, which isn’t very long from now. And, he does a
bit of a rant on the restaurant industry – which is something you
don’t want to miss.
