GREEN ECONOMY AND SUSTAINABILITY One of the trends for the coming years is the growth of businesses focused on sustainability and the green economy. With increasing environmental awareness and pressure for regulations, companies offering sustainable solutions are on the rise. According to a report by McKinsey & Company (one of the largest business consulting companies in the world), the green technology market has the potential to generate more than US$12 trillion by 2030.

DIGITAL ECONOMY AND E-COMMERCE E-commerce has experienced tremendous growth in recent years. And this momentum should continue exponentially in the coming years. Added to this, with the growth of digitalization, several businesses can emerge in this ecosystem.
Especially those related to marketplace platforms, logistics and digital payments. Additionally, the popularization of subscription and niche commerce models also offers significant opportunities. In short: Subscription model involves customers paying a recurring fee (monthly, annual, etc.
) to have ongoing access to a product or service. Such as streaming services (Netflix, Youtube Premium, Prime Video, Spotify, among others), surprise product boxes (such as books or cosmetics), and software and service subscriptions (such as Microsoft Office, Artificial Intelligence, Website Hosting, among others ). And niche trading refers to businesses that focus on a specific, well-defined segment of the market.

The other model is Drpshipping. Which is a model in which the reseller makes sales without keeping products in stock.

On-demand logistics is a logistics model where delivery services and transportation are carried out according to the immediate needs of customers. Instead of following a fixed schedule, deliveries are made when requested. 3.
LOGISTICS And with the growth of e-commerce that we now explain, the increase in online sales also boosted the logistics sector. There are already platforms that connect the company with transport companies. Therefore, with the continuous advancement of e-commerce, logistics companies are taking advantage of this wave of growth.
Making it an excellent investment opportunity in the transportation sector. As examples of businesses to take advantage of this trend, we can mention: Businesses that improve or facilitate the current logistics model are a strong trend for the coming years. Mainly to improve processes and agility in the delivery of goods.
The integration of advanced technologies such as automation, digitalization, robotics and data analysis is transforming logistics. Companies that adopt these technologies can reduce costs, increase efficiency and improve customer satisfaction. Which is the next subject that we will explain now.
4. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND AUTOMATION Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to revolutionize a wide range of industries. And the use of AI in business process automation, marketing, customer service (chatbots) and data analysis is already transforming the operations of many companies.
Additionally, robotic process automation is gaining traction because it allows companies to optimize repetitive operations, reducing costs and increasing efficiency. At the same time, the industrial robotization and automated logistics sector also has a promising future. PROMISING BUSINESS MODELS (SIGNER): As examples of businesses to take advantage of this trend, we can mention: AI solutions for companies, such as customer service automation and data processing systems, are examples of very promising business models that are already reality in many cases.
Marketing automation platforms for personalization at scale have huge potential for growth. Even more so, being able to focus on niche markets or needs of each company. Robotics and automation for manufacturing and logistics refers to the use of robots and automated systems to improve the efficiency and accuracy of production and goods movement processes.
In manufacturing, this can include the automated assembly, welding, painting and packaging of products. In logistics, it involves the use of automated guided vehicles, automated storage and retrieval systems, and drones for transportation, for example. 5.

Furthermore, just to give a few examples, the growing interest in well-being and mental health has boosted markets for meditation, digital fitness and online therapies. And businesses that combine technology with health, such as exercise tracking apps and startups focused on telemedicine and remote diagnosis, are thriving.
As business examples to take advantage of this trend, we can mention: Telemedicine platforms and remote healthcare solutions are business options that have potential for growth in the coming years. Fitness and wellness apps, such as guided meditation platforms and digital personal trainers are also examples that can take advantage of this trend.

Examples are watches, cell phone applications, bracelets, among others. 6. ONLINE EDUCATION AND EDTECH Online education and the educational technology sector is also growing rapidly.

This can be seen with the growing number of platforms with audiovisual content (such as the streaming services mentioned above) and social networks themselves. In this way, companies and non-companies, such as individuals, are increasing their presence on these channels.
Therefore, producing content of this type, be it videos, posts, audios, among others, is a good opportunity to take advantage of this trend. As business examples to take advantage of this trend, we can mention: With the growing demand for audiovisual content, opening a video production company can be an excellent business opportunity for those who want to work in the services sector. Digital marketing agency is also a path to be explored.
Since you can work on strategies, planning and develop content for these demands. 8. FINANCIAL TECHNOLOGY (FINTECH) The fintech sector is also among the most promising.
In short, fintechs are companies that develop fully digital financial products, in which the use of technology is the main differentiator in relation to traditional companies in the sector. And they are democratizing access to financial services, especially in regions where large parts of the population do not have access to or information about banking services. Furthermore, the rise of cryptocurrencies and decentralized finance creates new opportunities for businesses focused on digital asset management and blockchain (technology that allows transactions to be recorded securely and transparently in a decentralized network.
In which each transaction is stored in a “ block” and these blocks are linked into a “chain”). As examples of businesses to take advantage of this trend, we can mention: Digital banks and digital wallets for populations not served by traditional banks. Nowadays there are options for banks and digital wallets.
In this case, to find opportunities, you can explore the niche market that we explained previously, for example. Cryptocurrency platforms and digital asset management are also trends for the coming years. Microcredit and loan fintechs can also be an option to explore.
9. PETS MARKET The PET market has proven to be an excellent option for entrepreneurs in the coming years, due to continuous growth and diversification of consumer demands. This growth reflects the growing importance of pets in families, who are increasingly looking for quality products and services for their pets.
As examples of businesses to take advantage of this trend, we can mention: With the growing concern for the health and well-being of animals, natural food has gained prominence. Businesses that offer healthy and balanced lunches for dogs and cats can attract many customers, for example. Pet fashion is an expanding niche.
Producing and selling custom pet clothing, costumes, and accessories can be a lucrative opportunity. Pet shops that offer bathing, grooming and beauty services, such as pet spas, have great growth potential. Investing in clinics that offer specialized veterinary services , such as physiotherapy, acupuncture and alternative treatments, can be a good strategy to stand out in the market.
Recreation and training services for pets are increasingly in demand, especially in large cities where owners have less time to dedicate to their animals. For those with photography skills, offering exclusive photo shoots for pets can be a creative and unique way to enter the market. And with these examples we show here, you already have a good basis for studying the best options for setting up your own business.
