Exploding Topics - ET: April 5th 2022

Presented By:

Hey,

Here’s this week’s list of rapidly trending topics, insights and analysis.

Topic #1

Generative NFTs

Generative NFTs are computer-generated nonfungible tokens.

Specifically, creators customize an algorithm that can generate NFTs depending on the style the user chooses.

A very popular generative NFT (Chromie Squiggle) sold for $2.44M.

Art Blocks and Autoglyphs are trending startups that develop generative NFTs.

What's next:
Generative NFTs are part of the Generative AI meta trend.

Generative AI refers to artificial intelligence capable of generating art, media and text content.

The generative AI market is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 20% through 2025.

Rephrase’s generative AI learns people’s facial features when talking and then constructs realistic faces for a specific text or audio.

Synthesis AI is a generative AI capable of creating digital human faces.

Apulis uses data processing and deep learning algorithms to develop generative AI tools for a variety of uses.

Topic #2

Nexton

Nexton produces fruits and vegetables using vertical farming techniques.

Specifically, the startup’s technology makes it possible to farm indoors while maintaining required temperatures for year-round farming.

The startup currently produces up to 300 tons/year of leaf vegetables and up to 100 tons/year of strawberries.

Nexton has raised a total of $880K in funding from KB Investment and SEMA Translink Investment.

What's next:
Nexton is part of the “hydroponic farming goes mainstream” meta trend.

Only 7% of indoor farms use hydroponic farming. However, this number is forecasted to triple by 2023.

This farming method is trending because it uses 90% less water than traditional soil farming. And hydroponic farming can produce up to 10x more crops than soil farming.

The global hydroponic farming market is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 22.52% through 2025.

Topic #3

Postnatal Vitamins

Postnatal vitamins are supplements intended to help lactating mothers meet their recommended dose of nutrients (like vitamin A and choline).

Sales of postnatal supplements are projected to grow at a CAGR of 7% through 2031.

Pink Stork, Naturelo and Mommy’s Bliss are examples of trending postnatal vitamins brands.

What's next:
Postnatal vitamins are part of the OTC Maternity Vitamins meta trend.

The global maternity vitamin market is expected to reach $441M by 2023, with North America being the significant driver of this growth.

And the most popular maternity supplements are currently prenatal vitamins. Sales of prenatal vitamins are estimated to grow at a CAGR of 8.6% through 2025.

Topic #4

Reverse ETL

ETL, short for “extract, transform and load'', is the process of transferring data from an application to a data warehouse.

(For example, from a CRM like Salesforce into a data warehouse like Google BigQuery).

Reverse ETL, as the name suggests, is the inverse of that process.

The reverse ETL process makes warehouse data actionable by feeding that data directly into third-party tools that an organization uses.

For example, someone using Salesforce can quickly have data about a group of customers sent into their Salesforce workflow.

Interest in reverse ETL tools has skyrocketed ever since the first batch of reverse ETL tools (like Census) were launched in the second half of 2021.

What's next:
Reverse ETL is part of the Operational Analytics meta trend.

Operational analytics is the process of using data analytics to improve efficiency and effectiveness.

The rise of new technologies (like reverse ETL) is why the operational analytics market is forecasted to 3x by 2027.
