The three industrial revolutions

All industrial revolutions had one thing in common: they led to an economic upswing. Leading Niche Technologies invests with a focus on the technological leaders of the future.

Machine Age

The first industrial revolution took place in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Mechanical production machines and steam power replaced human labor. A well-known example is the spinning machine used in textile production.

Industrialization

The second industrial revolution started in the second half of the 19th century. It was characterized by new technologies such as electrification, the internal combustion engine, and mass production. A well-known example is Henry Ford.

Digital Age 1.0

The third industrial revolution is also referred to as the digital revolution and began in the 1970s. This era brought about the digitization of industry and society, including the emergence of technologies such as computers, robotics, and the internet. The largest companies in the world today were created during this time.

Digital age 2.0

In recent years, many new foundational technologies from the digital age 1.0 have been able to reach maturity and now form the basis for a decades-long cycle of innovation. New business models will disrupt existing industries or create new market segments

Leading Niche Technologies combines the mindset of venture capital and the high liquidity of financial markets in portfolio management. Exponential growth and a focus on business models are at the center of this approach.
