Society 5.0 A People-centric Super-smart Society

Big data analytics, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things—these are just some of the products of research and development that have become regular fixtures of our daily lives. Our private and professional lives are saturated with digital data and information technology through which we develop and share ideas, which in turn generate one new business after another. Just think how our lives have been trans-formed over the past 10 years, with the rise of the smartphone, new ways of shop-ping, new ways of working, and the like.
