Volvo CE has unveiled a new mission that continues its efforts in ‘Building Tomorrow’. The company has partnered with futurists to collect forecasts for Volvo CE consumers, adding construction, agriculture, mining and infrastructure.
The company has also partnered with academics at Columbia College of Hollywood to encourage those visions of the future.
Futurists expect long-term trends in science, generation and business. They help companies perceive how today’s inventions will have an effect on industries in the long run.
Volvo CE recently hired David Zach and Glen Hiemstra, known for their paintings with dozens of cutting-edge Fortune 500 corporations, to provide specialized forecasts on the direction that commercial industries could take.
“Building means having a smart concept of what it may seem,” said Stephen Roy, Senior Vice President for the Americas at Volvo CE.
“While no one can be 100 percent sure what the long term will hold, those professional futurists can give us an informed estimate based on the research, science and economic trends we see today. We asked Columbia College of Hollywood academics to encourage some of those forecasts so that we can have a vision of the long-term imaginable of young people who will soon live there.”
Below is a pattern of forecasts for the industry.
