Tony's work focuses on the science of change, disruption and transformation. He is the creator of the Seba Technology Disruption Framework: the complex patterns of change
(including cost-curves, S-curves and convergence) that have helped to accurately predict the ongoing phase change disruptions of transportation, energy, information and food & agriculture, as well as implications for society and geopolitics.
In 2006, Tony foresaw the rise of Apple, Google, Net ix, and Salesforce. In 2010, Tony foresaw the rise of a trillion-dollar solar industry. And in 2014, Tony accurately foresaw the trillion-dollar rise of solar, batteries and electric vehicles.
He has been featured in several movies and documentaries including Bloomberg’s “Forward Thinking: A Sustainable World”, 2040, and SunGanges.

The ongoing Phase Change Disruption of Energy, Transportation, Food & Agriculture, Labor and Intelligence are turning the 2020s into the most disruptive decade in history.
• Implications for the Economy, Land Use, Climate Change and Society.
• The ongoing Disruptions of the Five Foundational Sectors of the Economy are enabling the most profound Phase Change Transformation of Humanity in 10,000 Years
• The End of the Industrial Age and the Beginning of an Age of Superabundance.
• Rethinking Today — The Great Transformation of the Economy, Society and the Future of Humanity.
• Solar, Wind and Batteries (SWB) will not just disrupt energy; they will radically transform the architecture, patterns, and behaviors of our energy system.
• The SWB energy system will generate Superpower, probably the most transformative energy to emerge on the planet since the steam engine.
• SWB Superpower will generate several times more energy than the existing system at near zero cost most of the year, transforming the industry and the global economy over the next decade.
• The Precision Fermentation / Food-As-Software Disruption will create a dramatically new food system — a transformation not seen in 10,000 years.
• This Phase Change Disruption will have dramatic implications for industrial agriculture, geopolitics, climate change, health, materials, and investments while enabling the largest land use transformation in human history.
• The On-Demand, Electric and Autonomous Disruption - Implications for Peak Oil Demand, Re-Design of Cities and Geopolitics.
• The Transportation as a Service (TaaS) phase change disruption will have dramatic implications for industries including auto, oil, shipping, logistics, parking, real estate, and insurance. Implications for society, from local politics to geopolitics.
