Description
This book helps readers to take the leap into a new era of viral business – and tap into a billion-plus consumer base. In “Jump Point”, Silicon Valley veteran Tom Hayes crafts a visionary, exhilarating, and often startling look at our fast-approaching business future. Welcome to the world of “pandemic economics;” a nonstop global economy characterized by network nation states, billion-selling products, and trillion-dollar markets. “Jump Point” illustrates how the next economy will arrive at an inflection point just 1000 days away. Managers and organizations that survive the “jump” will find themselves in a strange new landscape of unfamiliar players and unforgiving power laws. From shape-shifting consumers, to competitive jihads, to the wealth-evaporating forces of runaway “mudflation,” Hayes takes you on an eye-opening ride to the world of the jump point and beyond.
