Germany Could Be A World Leader In Green Energy/Renewable
Germany is currently under pressure to exit coal power by 2050. To achieve Paris Climate Conference goal global emissions would have to fall to zero by 2050, and Germany could play a major transformational role in this as Germany already enjoys a global reputation.

Industry 4.0 and Germany
4th Industrial Revolution is going to begin. You guessed it right. Germany will be leading this revolution along with others.
Manufacturing plants are going to get smarter.
Industry 4.0 facilitates the vision and execution of a “Smart Factory”. Over the Internet of Things, cyber-physical systems communicate and cooperate with each other and with humans in real time, and via the Internet of Services, both internal and cross-organizational services are offered and utilized by participants of the value chain.
Impact Of Population Shrink & Migrants
As Germany is going to shrink by 10 million people by 2050, Germany needs more immigrants to compensate for the gap left by retiring baby boomers.

In a short term migrants bring huge financial and logistical costs but they make an important contribution to the future needs that Germany
Britain will overtake France and Germany to become the most populated EU country
