The hyperconnected era is how people refer to the 21^st century. Highly advanced technologies have become as intelligent as humans. Developments surpass human’s level are continuing. This implies that the future society we have to live in and lead will also be a hyperconnected era where everything forms a connection and a relationship.

So, what can the connection mean?

This can mean a connection between machines. Internet of Things (IoT) technology enables every device to connect and cooperate with each other to achieve more efficient results.

The connection can also mean a relationship between machines and people. For example, with the invention of wearable devices, cell phones were knocked out of their position in the digital revolution. This is because people can carry and use wearable devices on their bodies.

However, the true meaning of connection symbolized by the hyperconnected era is the connection between humans. Whatever the proportion technology takes in our society, we humans, will lead and develop society. Compared to movies, technology is just a supporting figure or an extra to make the main character, the humans, shine even more.

Therefore, we need to use these supporting figures to draw more attention from the audience. 2021 EXPRESS will show you how people can identify current trends, solve existing problems, and suggest better directions for development.
