Pokud má Evropa i Česko zůstat konkurenceschopné po roce 2030, musíme všichni začít uvažovat v horizontu beyond tomorrow. Ukazují to dlouhodobé analýzy OECD, strategické dokumenty Evropská komise i predikce World Economic Forum, které se shodují na tom, že technologie, demografie a geopolitika výrazně přepíšou současný ekonomický model už během příštích let.
