The year gone by was very eventful with many global happenings affecting not only the present, but casting doubts on the probable impacts of the events in the future as well. Interestingly, business has gone on as usual, and though each event/happening had immediate fall-outs, the impacts have not been too long-lasting. Among the global events that can truly be considered ‘Top Trends of the Year’, we have included ‘Re-shoring’, which is not really a product of this year alone, but the type of momentum and focus seen this year makes the concept a trend to watch out for! Among the global events that can truly be considered ‘Top Trends of the Year’, we have included ‘Re-shoring’, which is not really a product of this year alone, but the type of momentum and focus seen this year makes the concept a trend to watch out for! With Trump coming in, we can foresee this trend gaining significant momentum in 2017, as the push for bringing back jobs to the US will be among the major agendas.
