THE global technological revolution has evolved to a point where we live in a "hyperconnected" world that is also increasingly interdependent, according to The New York Times' foreign affairs columnist and author, Thomas Friedman. This has profound implications for companies and workers, creating new opportunities but also new challenges, even for individuals.
Mr Friedman was speaking during a day-long forum yesterday entitled "The Next New World", which he anchored. Held at the Four Seasons Hotel, the forum commemorated the rebranding of the former International Herald Tribune newspaper as the International New York Times.
