Digital is the Brave New World of this decade. Coupled with this, and especially critical in Africa, is the other Brave New World - mobile. Marry these together, and we will in the next couple of years have a new order in communication between brands and people, people and people, and people and researchers. TNS's Emerging Market experts say this will all be in place by 2014 - probably even sooner - leading to a revolution in how people perceive and interact with the world.
