b) I believe this opportunity exists because of the growth in Artificial Intelligence, Electric Vehicles, and Cannabis. It is constantly seen and seems to be growing rapidly.
c) Prototypical customer: investors in the stock market, whom recognize these specific trends and believe that they are profitable
d) I believe this trend is relatively easy to exploit because not only are they in multiple categories of industries, making it appealing to many people, but they are opportunities that make sense. However, there are some downfalls because what companies specifically to invest in may be difficult to choose.
e) I saw this opportunity because I am interested in all three of the growing sectors. Artificial Intelligence appeals to me the most as technology is constantly changing, and we have to recognize these changes in order to grow.

b) An opportunity may exist because Wilson states that “70% of the time there’s one person in a car with four seats,” which basically proves that it is way too costly to be transporting us by vehicles. Uber and Lyft are examples of trends we are currently using as alternative methods of transportation.
c) Prototypical customer: investors looking to invest in mobility-focused companies, or people seeking a business that may transform the way we use transportation.
d) I believe this opportunity is relatively difficult to obtain because of the comfort of having your own car, at least for myself personally; however, it makes sense that this change will occur as more people look for cheaper and more effective ways of transportation.
e) I saw this opportunity because I believe that moving toward more environmentally friendly means of transportation is extremely important, so seeing this becoming an opportunity is great.

b) Opportunities may exist because the agricultural sector could benefit from selling hemp, which was legalized in the Farm Bill 2018.
c) Prototypical customer: Farmers who see hemp as a business opportunity. Along with investors who recognize a profitable investment in the cannabis market, specifically hemp.
d) I believe this opportunity is relatively easy to obtain because hemp doesn’t contain a lot, if any, THC, so it’s not as controversial as other forms of cannabis. Because it’s been so hugely debated, I believe more and more people are starting to accept cannabis as an investment opportunity.e) I saw this opportunity because I recognize that cannabis is a debatable topic, but it could also be extremely profitable to invest in.

I think that the hemp opportunity is a GREAT one. Hemp is one of the best organic substances out there and can be used for a wide variety of things like a plastic replacement, to make clothes, rope, canvas, textiles, body oils, it can even be used in dog food. Not only will it make farmers more money it will help all of us become more environmentally friendly.
