The odds may not always be in your favor, and so it’s going to take a lot more than savvy investing, hustle, persistence and dedication. Becoming a billionaire is surely an impressive feat. However, there are some billionaires who’re more impressive than the rest.

Artificial Intelligence is transforming the world – thought not at a quick pace many expect. AI is now channeling our future from bank loans to supplies of food in supermarket, and once impossible prospects in the service sector are now looming in the future ahead of us. The time is now for startups to capitalize on artificial intelligence. It is said that AI will $13 trillion to the global economy in the coming decade. With each passing day, investors are impatient to get a piece of the pie before it’s too late. And so, we’ve covered the hottest startups of the year and the brilliant minds behind each venture in this issue. Check out our list of the most promising startups, apps and tech based on their success stories and the moolah they have raised so far.

Today, some of the most popular podcast publishers have grown to an audience of 30 million monthly listeners. The podcast scene is exploding by leaps and bounds. Why shouldn’t it? It’s the most popular activity to do when we are at home, while driving, at work, and exercising. For our cover story, we peeked into the tech podcast scene which owned a shark-sized chunk of podcasting industry. 


Can you imagine a world without technology? Tricky, isn’t it? As we move further into the 21st century, it seems that simple taps and clicks fill our daily lives even more, and thus becoming an irrefutable part of our daily affairs. But what might be peeking up on us as we step into a brand new decades?

The previous decade left us extremely holistic tech gifts. We saw a massive increase in AR and VR innovation, a multitude of automation and drones, and the rise and death of several cryptocurrencies. So what’s popping up on our smartphones and PCs in the coming years?


Our February issue is packed with hard to put down success stories. Don’t believe us? Read our cover story to peek into the crazy fast-paced world of cybersecurity where IDMERIT and 9 other leading companies are saving you from the treacherous world of online fraud.

Our year-end issue is brimming with stories of emerging technologies and startups that will impact our everyday lives. ‘The Next-Gen Rainmakers’ is about the next wave of innovators who’re making the tech economy tick. The value of their products and companies are continuing to surge as investors latch onto the next ‘iPod’ or ‘Facebook.’

Over the last decade, technology has changed forever. From the advent of multimedia messaging app and music streaming to the ever-changing platforms offered by social media, the way we interact with technology is more varied than ever before. For our cover story we’ve taken on the unenviable, although necessary task of showcasing the successes of tech barons and moguls.

The fourth quarter of 2018 recorded the highest ever number of “unicorn births” in a single quarter. And what’s the secret? Efforts made outside the business ideas. The technology industry has since become a major target for top venture investors who don’t just write cheques but offer other services that transform ideas into successful businesses. Finding investors can’t be easier without exploring a huge list. And it takes more than a mere look to identify the venture capitalists driving the technology market.

This current issue of Technowize looks into the emerging technology, including some elite tech projects debuting in 2019, its immediate impacts and global responses in terms of judicious use of some of the already existing and promising tech. Artificial intelligence – the famous technology powering most of the recent advances was reviewed as a tool that could fix social justice – a global challenge technology has long ignored, and the reasons behind pervasive indifference in the use of AI to mitigate social prejudice. Details of the most advanced and intriguing robots around the world were treated, taking account of their latest updates which has enabled some to achieve swifter rapport with humans, the potentials and how much they have learned the human behavior.

Ten years ago, there were hardly any tech companies that could count a billion customers. Not even Google. The biggest tech company in 2007 was Microsoft Windows and it had not yet crossed a billion users. Today, over half of the world’s population is online. That’s 4 billion people around the world using the Internet. It’s just a matter of time before another 3 billion people are connected. But a lot of those folks live in the remotest locations on the planet. It’s hard to imagine how the tech companies are bringing Internet to places using paraphernalia like giant balloons.

With creative destruction in mind, we bring to you a list of the most influential young guns in tech who’ve shaped the world with technical change and entrepreneurial innovation. TECHNOWIZE 40 under 40 looks at disruptors, innovators, artists and rebels – all of whom have built something new and different, or simply disrupted the archaic way things were done. 

Netflix famously said it wanted to become HBO faster than HBO could become Netflix. Can online streaming TV prove to be a viable alternative to the traditional cable bundle? Can traditional cable TV prove it’s a cheaper improvement over Internet TV? The real question is which one will be the first to bring doom to the other.

When my father turned forty, we threw him a tongue-in-cheek funeral themed party, deck the living room with memorabilia. We laughed and laughed about it – forty back then was older than forty today. In today’s world, we’re always on the hunt of “someone young and hungry.” The connotation is lucid: if you aren’t young, you probably have very little to contribute. To be young and to make life really count is tougher than it sounds. To start with, one needs to get up from the slumber of stagnation. Productivity and creativity aside, one also need a strong commitment to shoring up to the next level. Young Entrepreneurs in this stage are supremely motivated not just for themselves, but for others. The below-40 crowd is more likely to do work that matters not just for themselves, but also future generations. For example, Mark Zuckerberg, 33, the richest tech billionaire under 40, has pledged to give away 99 percent of his earnings on behalf of The Giving Pledge. Airbnb co-founders – Joe Gebbia, Brian Chesky and Nathan Blecharczyk, have pledged to donate wealth to the U.S. Philanthropy project. In learning about these inspiring entrepreneurs, it’s easy to see why young billionaires have more innovation potential to do what really matters.


`If you could travel back in time three centuries, you’d encounter the last of Louis XIV’s wars for domination of the Europe, Benjamin Franklin publishing Poor Richard’s Almanack, and James Watt inventing the steam engine. This was a world during the Renaissance Age (14th to the 17th century) and a bridge between a period of European exploration and the age of machines. 
But what if we could look 300 years into the future? What would Earth look like in 2300? For starters, what will the weather be like? Will artificial intelligence have taken over the world? Will we have established the first human settlement on Mars?

The key thing about mortality is that its approach to a given question always seems, and on all levels, perfectly logical. To take our current example, the argument about AI posing an existential threat to humanity, in most meaningful respects is, quite compelling. If and when we develop human-level artificial intelligence, it’s only a matter of time until this AI gives rise to smart iterations of itself whose intelligence is far superior to our own as our intelligence is currently to that of animal species on the planet. This particular strain of technological Singularity could be glimpsed in our Cover Story: The Golden Age of Pill Robots.

Augmented Reality is most often described as the overlay of digital information on physical reality. From Google Glass to Microsoft’s HoloLens, our focus so far has been on amplifying pseudo-holography to alter our surroundings. What we will undoubtedly gain is intensified commodification of our desires, as the hybrid potential takes over the world of technology in the coming decade in a much deeper sense. Our lives will be arguably far more intricate; we will have far more choice than ever, saturated information, and the effects of this on our behavior and identity will be undeniably consequential. Our Cover Story, ‘The Age of Augmented Reality,’ goes beyond the potential applications of the immersive technology, with particular focus on healthcare, education and key services.

Why is our privacy important? What’s the big deal about privacy? Why can’t we let companies like Google and Facebook collect data? The question is, why? 
Consumers are worked up about privacy, and rightfully so. There is a sudden loss of freedom when privacy is taken away from us. We do nothing when seek privacy to wildly sing in the shower, write secret love letters, or keep private journals. We seek privacy to be free of the judgmental eyes of other people. Privacy is a basic human need...


In the1960s, American psychologist Harry Harlow conducted a series of experiments which involved separating infant rhesus monkeys from their mother’s just hours after birth. Each infant was given a choice between two dummy mothers. One was made of wire and held a milk bottle; another was covered in synthetic fur to resemble a real money but provided no food. Harlow assumed the monkeys would gravitate towards the mother surrogate which gave them a basic need: sustenance. Much to his surprise, the monkeys preferred their realistic looking cloth surrogate mother for comfort and security, and would only select the metal wire mother when they needed food. Harlow’s experiments fleshed out “form, function, feeling,” by American architect Louis Sullivan, the core of modern human design principles. Form and function have become universal concepts, but there’s a third, more subtle factor at play in design: feeling.

“Let’s teach kids to write code.” There’s a reason most “conventional” career advisors are espousing this catchphrase in a rising tide of technology. The world is disintegrating corporeally, yet the virtual world is experiencing the beginning of life.
Code: The building blocks of virtual world, has become as essential as gravity that holds the Universe together. Consider this assertion: In order to evolve, we need to reshape the way we think about computers, in this meteoric technological change.
We will need to embrace the changes and use them to generate more opportunity and truly impact our world at large, consummately and sublimely.

Human Evolution began nearly 6 million years ago and it stands as a testament to the litany process that our ancestors went through to ultimately become anatomically modern humans. We have brains roughly three times as large as those of our early ancestors that lived 4 million to 2 million years ago. Given evolution’s trajectory, could creating artificially created cognitive beings be the next chapter of humanity? A startling thought, but the history of evolution indicates that we may be the last apes standing in a sea of cyber sapiens. The lines between humans and machines, biology and technology, reality and virtuality, all seems to be dramatically consumed by our desire to coevolve our tools. Transhumanists foretell a time when sentient beings will emerge who will literally be part biology and part machine. It makes sense.

The year of 2014 was a memoir masquerading our fear and hatred of mass surveillance and dismal state of digital security. It wolfed-down data breaches, leaks, hacks and software vulnerabilities in one sitting, leaving an unsparing reminder that pretty much everything digital we own is fundamentally flawed and insecure.
Our cover story, “The Achilles Heel of Internet of Things,” explicitly examines the serious issue of cyber adversaries that needs to be dealt with sooner or later. The myriad daily attacks over the past years is a constant reminder of how smart technologies have become 21st century warheads.

Technology is on the cusp of singularly reinventing our bodies.  A good example of this is the way technology is changing our notions of disability. When Össur made the world’s first integrated bionic leg, disability ceased to exist. From prosthetics to bionic organs, advances in the increasingly significant field of prosthetics are unbounded and endless. That’s the beauty of it.
This issue, we decided to examine the advances in the field of bionics: some of these technologies are meant to help people regain normal bodily functions.
