First of all,
I would like to thank Kazakhstan 
and someones for their good job and invitation
Thank: organizations

5VIII Astana Economic Forum
High-Level Panel of Asian and European
Knowledge Economy Leaders
Today,
my topic of speech is 
what is the next after information revolution
My core idea is that 
the information revolution is going to end,
the new revolution is on the way, and
the radical innovation is waiting for you.
6VIII Astana Economic Forum
High-Level Panel of Asian and European
Knowledge Economy Leaders
In the past 16 years (since 1998 ),
We have published more than 40 books on 
the modernization, innovation and revolution.
Hon. Mr. Chairman, and all friends,
For example,
modernization science, 
China modernization report, 
knowledge innovation,
Strategic opportunities of sixth revolution 
of science and technology, and so on

We believe that,
modernization can be divided into two stages
from 18th century to the end of 21st century
First modernization
(1760-1970)
transformation and 
change from    
agricultural to industrial 
economy and society.
Second modernization
(1970-2100) 
transformation and 
change from
industrial to knowledge 
economy and society.

We have witnessed that,
the revolution of science, technology and industry 
is the driving force of the modernization (Figure 1).   
First modernization 
(industrial economy) 
promoted by three times  
revolutions, such as 
machinery revolution, 
electricity revolution and 
automation revolution.
Second modernization
(knowledge economy) 
promoted by three times 
revolution, such as 
information revolution, 
new biological and 
new physical revolution.

We also witnessed that,
there are two kinds of innovation,
one is incremental innovation,
the other is radical innovation.
In the process of modernization and revolution, 
both incremental and radical innovation
are very important to the economic growth, 
but the radical innovation is the key factor for success. 
So we do need to identify radical innovation in the future.

z The information revolution, is the great change and 
transformation of world economy and human 
society mainly based on the information and 
computing technology. 
1. When is the end of information revolution
z The first electronic digital computer had been 
invented in 1945, and some scholars believe that is 
the first milestone of the information revolution.
China Center for  Modernization Research

In the past 60 years,
the information revolution 
has changed our world in many aspects ,
such as 
computer, internet, mobile phone, 
e-mail, e-commence, e-government, 
e-science, network-television, 
network-game and digital life and so on.

z In 2011, my book Strategic Opportunities on the 
Sixth Revolution of Science and Technology (C. He, 
2011) was published in China. 
z We identified five times revolutions of science and 
technology since 16th century (Table 1). 
z two scientific revolutions, 
z three technological revolutions,
z three Industrial revolutions.

revolution of S&T is a historical process 
We discovered three features of revolutions of S&T
z which has its starting and finishing points,

z Secondly,
z The technological revolution and the industrial 
revolution are the two side of one coin, to some 
content.
z Three times technological revolutions with three 
times industrial revolutions (Table 1)
z The third technological revolution (industrial revolution) 
can be divided into two stages:
automation revolution and information revolution.

z Thirdly, 
S&T revolutions follow a pattern. 
z Each revolution has its specific landmarks, similar 
structure and different socioeconomic impacts.
z There are differences between a scientific 
revolution and a technological one. 
z The time span tends to be shorter (Table 3).

We considered that, 
the Automation and Information Revolution
(the fifth revolution of S&T, third technical revolution)
maybe see the end at 2020 (Table 3), 
which last about 70 years
just like Electricity and Transportation Revolution
(the third revolution of S&T, second technical revolution)
Which also lasted about 70 years.

2. What’s the next after information revolution
According to our study, 
the 21st century will see about 
three times revolutions of S&T.
The sixth one will be discussed below.
(1) late stage of the information revolution 
(second half of the fifth revolution),
(2) the sixth revolution of S&T
(3) the seventh revolution of S&T.

2-1 The direction of sixth revolution of S&T
z All the messages indicate that 
z the sixth revolution of S&T will probably take 
place in the field of biology; 
z it maybe a revolution of new biology (Table 4).

2-1 The direction of sixth revolution of S&T
z Sixth revolution of S&T will be a “revolution of new 
biology and regeneration”, 
z which will take place mainly in the overlap of life 
science, information technology and 
nanotechnology (Figure 2. )
z From the perspective of scientific revolution, it will be 
probably one about new biology revolution. 
z From the perspective of technological revolution, it is likely 
to be regeneration revolution covering bionics, creation and 
regeneration technologies.

physical substitute of natural person who does major manual and mental work; Regenerated personis the new life of natural person who can keep learning and growing; natural personwill be mainly about innovation and leisure. Specially-made bionic person can adapt to the space environment and take the natural person to space, thus ushering in the Space Era.38VIII Astana Economic ForumHigh-Level Panel of Asian and EuropeanKnowledge Economy LeadersIf agreeing with the forecast above on the sixth revolution of S&T, we have to do a lot at present.
