It seems really hard to label exact starting points here. I could see in 2030, we look back and late 10s is clear but we can't find out for late 20s.

Where do we put really good batteries? Lyft? Amazing phone cameras? Quadrotors? Fitness trackers? In ten years it will be clear where to place those.

I think the big one that's shaping up to be a top game changer is space accessibility. None of these technologies listed just pipped up out of nowhere, they matured in each decade, and space is maturing this decade.
