JWT publishes 2014 must-see list of 100 attractions

The FIFA World Cup in Brazil and the Winter Olympics in Sochi are just two of the 100 things featured on JWT’s global must-see list for the year 2014. This year promises a lot of things to watch for, says Ann Mack, director of trendspotting at JWT. “Our list spotlights developments around these major events and across sectors including technology, television, food and spirits, retail, health care and the arts. It also reflects broader shifts that we’re forecasting, including the end of anonymity, the movement toward mindful living and the remixing of tradition in an ‘everything-goes’ age” Mack says.Many of the things that made the list are focused on technology, like Internet safety nets, robots for kids (kid-bots) and techno-paranoia. Added to these are new foods and beverages, new markets opening, new behavior and ideas with the potential of escalating into big trends.See the complete list of the 100 things to watch for and see in 2014 on {JWT Intelligence;www.jwtintelligence.com/2014-and-beyond/#axzz2nyOMUOxD}.
