The World Economic Forum’s 2025 Emerging Technologies Report highlights innovations with the potential for profound global impact. These solutions not only address current challenges but also redefine the foundations of strategic sectors such as healthcare, energy, infrastructure, and information. 


Infographic on the top emerging technologies of 2025, according to the World Economic Forum. Includes: engineered living therapeutics that produce medicine inside the body; GLP-1s for neurodegenerative diseases, effective for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s; nanozymes with enzyme-like functions; invisible watermarking for AI-generated content; sustainable nitrogen fixation for fertilizers; structural batteries storing energy in vehicle components; osmotic power systems using water salinity; advanced modular nuclear technologies; autonomous biochemical sensors for real-time health monitoring; and collaborative sensing with AI for decision-making and autonomous technologies.

As these frontiers advance, structural challenges emerge for the market:


  • Regulation: The pace of innovation is outstripping legal frameworks, particularly in sensitive areas like healthcare, artificial intelligence, and energy.


  • Adoption & Scale: Many solutions still face technical, operational, and cultural barriers to achieving commercial traction.


  • Capital Intensity: Biotechnology and clean energy demand long investment cycles, often misaligned with traditional venture capital models.


  • Ethical Risks: Biometric sensors and digital traceability systems raise dilemmas around privacy, security, and transparency.


  • Talent & Skills: Advancing these technologies requires technical and multidisciplinary training, a challenge in building teams ready to scale.


Anticipating these shifts is no longer a differentiator. Today, it is a prerequisite for operating at the cutting edge of innovation.
