In the third of Singularity University's Future of Everything YouTube series with Jason Silva, Silva discusses "The Big Three" exponential technologies, which he defines as GNR: genetics, nanotechnology, and robotics.

"If I were to be talking to entrepreneurs, if I was talking to heads of companies, I would tell them, pay attention to exponentials," Silva says. "Pay attention to disruptive technologies… These are the forces that are upending the world. These are the trillion-dollar industries that are going to emerge out of no place."
