Topic/Title: MINITRENDS: Seizing the Future Before It’s Defined

Abstract: Minitrends are emerging trends that promise to become of significant importance within the next 2 to 5 years. When applied properly, Minitrends provides you with the opportunity to utilize and express your imagination, your perceptiveness, your originality, your logic, your innovative nature, and your basic good sense. Minitrend involvement also provides you a way to distinguish yourself from your colleagues and contemporaries.
