The year 2016 was a lot like that old proverb that states “may you live in interesting times.” Between the election, the Internet of Things attack, vehicle hacking, Windows 10’s big release, virtual reality going mainstream, advances in quantum computing, government threat data sharing, an artificial intelligence beating humans, the takeoff of drones and billions of compromised e-mails, you almost couldn’t get away from the next big story. Some of these items and events even forced people to became part of the story, whether they wanted to or not. Interesting times indeed.

NextGov asked TWB CEO John Breeden to predict a few of the largest trends that we can expect in the New Year. He got two out of three right last time, so perhaps these will be proven correct as well.
