Trend 1. Personal development
Today, learning does not end with obtaining a diploma, and moreover, it does not guarantee getting a good job. Learning becomes our way of life. As a consequence, there are elements of gamification — we learn playing, and learning becomes personalized, the person can choose the time of learning, how deeply he wants to study this or that information. But the most valuable today is the experience — people want to experience the errors, and correct effective action.
Trend 2. Change traditional norms and mores
Notions about native women’s or men’s occupations, women’s and men’s outward appearance or behavior is eroded.

In this context, on the first plan now goes female management due to the fact that in our turbulent world where everything is rapidly changing, that women’s management with the flexibility, desire for cooperation and understanding helps to achieve success.
Changes related to age: today, old age is not perceived as a point, today, old age is a condition when a person ceases to learn, to try new things and experiment.

7. Prototyping
Today no business can afford to launch a product or project during the year. Such a period — a luxury for anyone. If you have some idea now to start it and then go on to listen to feedback and Refine, and then you this product will change in accordance with emerging conditions.
8. Fundraising
