</p>
                                <p>The current state of technology and its prevalence in all 
                                societies has created an era of amazing innovation and 
                                opportunity across the world. Specifically, three key 
                                transformational trends are coming together in a way that will 
                                significantly change our perspective of computing and how 
                                technology can be integrated into our lives. These trends are 1) 
                                the low-cost availability of near limitless resources, 2) 
                                ubiquitous availability of networks, devices, and I/O 
                                mechanisms, and 3) Natural &quot;human&quot; interfaces and experiences. 
                                This transformative combination will enable innovators to 
                                develop highly advanced solutions with very little investment, 
                                and will change the landscape of business and industry in ways 
                                that have never been predicted - much sooner than expected. This 
                                discussion will look into how these trends are progressing and 
                                how they are impacting key industries today.&nbsp;
