National film industries tend to move in cycles. In Australia right now, we're on a high, a feeling of potential, which as yet shows no sign of flagging. But the word "industry" is misleading. A small national cinema has no industry in the Hollywood sense. ↗

Our economic system, run for profit and waste and based primarily on the extractive industries, is the cause of climate change. We have wasted the earth's treasure and we can no longer exploit it cheaply. ↗

Once shoppers become empowered, we will facilitate industries thinking in completely new terms; for example, making products that are totally biodegradable. ↗

More and more major businesses and industries are being run on software and delivered as online services - from movies to agriculture to national defense. ↗

Over the next 10 years, I expect many more industries to be disrupted by software, with new world-beating Silicon Valley companies doing the disruption in more cases than not. ↗
