The two pie charts illustrate projected global production shares across different sectors in 2040 and 2060.
Overall, services and manufacturing are expected to remain the dominant sectors, while agriculture and energy will decline. Information and communication technology is projected to grow steadily.
Initially, in 2040, services are predicted to account for 40 percent of total production, followed by manufacturing at 31 percent. Information and communication technology is at 15 percent, while the other sectors are much smaller. Agriculture is at 7 percent, energy is at 4 percent and materials is at 3 percent.
Moreover, by 2060, the share of services is forecast to increase slightly to 41 percent, while manufacturing will rise to 33 percent. Information and communication technology will expand to 16 percent, strengthening its role in the global economy. In contrast, agriculture will fall to 5 percent, energy to 1 percent and materials will only grow slightly to 4 percent.
The main shift is the growing importance of technology, alongside steady growth in services and manufacturing, while traditional sectors shrink.
