Top Businesses the World is Looking At in 2023


The business world is ever-evolving, and with new technology emerging, there are a multitude of opportunities for entrepreneurs, environmentalists, technologists, and investors to seize. In 2023, certain businesses are poised to make a significant impact on the society and the economy. Here are the top businesses worth discussing in 2023:


1. Space Exploration Companies:

With NASA and SpaceX leading the way, space exploration has been a topic of interest for decades now. However, in 2023, the industry is set to explode, with space exploration investments skyrocketing quite literally as well as figuratively. With companies such as Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic, and Rocket Lab, joining in, the possibility of space tourism is starting to look like a real possibility. A case study on SpaceX's reusability strategy of rockets highlights how reusable rockets are disrupting the traditional space industry by reducing the cost of launching payloads into space significantly. Moreover, according to a report by Morgan Stanley, the space exploration industry is expected to be worth $2.7 trillion by 2045, which is higher than the 2023 GDPs of Canada and Russia! 


2. Biotechnology:

By now, the COVID-19 pandemic has taught the world the importance of developing effective treatments and vaccines quickly, wherein biotechnology companies such as Moderna, BioNTech, and Novavax are leading the charge. Even before the pandemic, in 2019, the global bioeconomy accounted for about $5 trillion, or nearly 6% of global GDP.  Based on 10-15% annual revenue growth trends, the world bioeconomy could exceed $20 trillion by 2030. With technologies that can enable precise gene editing, the hope of development of new treatments for genetic diseases and cancer are leading to a rapid and sustained growth of investments in this area. 


3. Artificial Intelligence:

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been a buzzword for a while now, however, the industry grew leaps and bounds in 2023 as the potential of AI is boundless with companies such as OpenAI, Cognitivescale, and Vicarious, already having visible effects on industries. With Meta introducing real-time speech-to-speech translation, Microsoft launching Copilot (Read more about Copilot in my previous blogpost here) which engages leads through personalized messages; and American scientists developing a method to identify Parkinson’s Diseases, it is not just the future of translator jobs, marketing jobs, and doctor jobs respectively, that are questionable; but it is disruption of human requirement in any job that is questionable due to the sheer potential of AI.


4. Renewable Energy:

As the fight against climate change intensifies, companies that provide solar, wind, and other forms of renewable energy are set to do well in 2023 and beyond. Companies such as Enphase Energy, SunPower, and First Solar are leading the way in enabling higher efficiency and reliability in solar power generation and usage.


While these emerging businesses have the potential to change the world, with the right funding and investment, they can make a significant positive impact on society as well.

The Pepper Spray - A Gendered View

Thoughts this morning while I was on a shopping site. 4/5/2018 8:00 AM You know what is one of the saddest things to buy in the world? A pepper spray. The very fact that a woman buys it, keeping a particular scenario in mind, makes her small and powerless in her own eyes. I know, being able to afford one is a privilege, and yet, needing one, is a misfortune. Apart from questions ''Will such a situation arise?'' and ''Will I get time to take it out?'', there are questions like ''If all woman carry pepper sprays at all times, will crime against women not happen at all?''. The last one is nothing but a rhetorical question. What can we do? Carry one. Trust no one. TRY TO be safe. The scenario of using a pepper spray could arise in any situation. A man following her, or getting home late from work, or getting home late on a bus after watching a movie. Why is a woman considered to be the physical manifestation of vulnerability in ...

War and Peace

(Wrote this a long time ago in 2012. Still relevant)  Once in a distant land, two brothers were seen, Like twin nations, but with a boundary of ego in between. When asked to come to peace, they'd say ''He's not my brother'' With fiery swords, one wanted to behead the other. For peace to be, the only choice was to let them stay apart Soon, they demarcated land and constructed huge walls between their hearts. As years rolled by, onlookers waited for love to creep across the walls, Instead, the brothers kept on throwing stones at each other's houses, unaware that their houses were made of glass. Both followed different religions and raised their own flags above sanity, Unaware, that one thing is far above religion - and that's humanity. When onlookers would ask, where the problem in unison lies, They would be dismissed as if they were too innocent to realise. One night, a rampant fire spread            Destroying both their cattle, it brou...

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion

"Please resist racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, Islamophobia, climate-change denial, body shaming, ignorance, and corruption. Resist hate." The above note used to be a part of my work desk back when I was working from office. It had a ton of positive impact because it acted as a filter and reminder to attract only non-judgemental open-minded folks into my life.   During lunch time, I used to overhear a lot of giggles over sexist and racist jokes, but for those people I became unapproachable (other than professionally) for good. Most people who would walk upto my desk, already knew what my expectations were. Whenever someone would walk upto my desk with a comment that would be sexist or in any of the hate categories, I would immediately point my finger towards this note without having to say anything. Time and again, I face an inner moral conflict when someone I'm talking to passes a comment that falls into any of these or similar categories; because mo...
