Abstract
In June 2017, the World Economic Forum published their choice of the top 10 emerging technologies of 2017 [1]. As a chemist who has spent his life in basic and applied research and also many years in innovation and foresight activities, I wanted to know how much chemistry is needed in the future. My first reading of the paper surprised me and made me wonder. Why is chemistry only mentioned once, and then only as an application? So I looked deeper for chemical contributions in the various technologies, and will report in detail here what I found. Direct quotes from the original article [1] are indicated by quotation marks. Illustrations from the original article are used with permission from the World Economic Forum.
