Since 1996 post graduate MBA students have published scenarios on the future of the information society online as part of Daniel Erasmus's class on scenario thinking at the various business schools in the world. These more than 60 scenarios sets of which a selection is listed below and form a unique record of thinking of how the perceptions of the information society evolved from a new technology, boom and bust. Many of the predictions, controvercial at their time, have proven to be accurate in retrospect. At moments that Daniel Erasmus is teaching a class on scenario thinking, you will also find scenarios in process of construction on this site.

If you have been involved in some of the processes, please add to this page to refect on how thinking in scenarios aided your decisionmaking since developing the scenarios.
