Government intervention can push us to either Virtual World or Bizworld or keep us in Slow Boat.
-
Virtual World can be reached with either a very quick pass through Upstairs, Downstairs when government facilitates a bit, or directly if government provides strong leadership and investment. Bizworld is reached or Slow Boat is maintained when government adds constraints to major issues leading to slow progress.
|
The move to Virtual World can be derailed by a lack of supply of engaging interactive applications and programming.
-
In this case, we may be diverted to Bizworld. Indeed, so important is this quality of supply aspect that it should be considered a key driving force to monitor.

It seemed implausible that we could move from Virtual World to any of the other scenarios; if we get there, we stay -- or more likely, move to an altogether different set of futures.
