Digital natives are the young people who grew up with the Web. Now they’re disrupting it. This month, Business Impact explores the expectations and challenges of “generation tech”—the twentysomethings who are putting their own twist on the ways that technology gets turned into products. From Internet protests to crowdsourced capital and do-it-yourself biologists working at home, young people are throwing today’s technology business models and institutions into question.

17-year-old Laura Deming doesn't drive and can't vote. Is now her chance to change the world?

The cars we drive are about to change, and so are the ways we commute and do business.

One new Business Impact story is presented each day, and at the end of every month the stories are packaged in a PDF with additional material that helps readers make sense of the subject.
