This third-wave (Toffler, 1984) is mark by the widespread use of internet-based information technology, digital service industries with artificial intelligence as the driving of economic and social development. Meanwhile, COVID-19 has also shown a big gap between large companies with substantial market capitalizations such as Microsoft, Apple, [Alphabet] and Facebook in the developed economies that survive the pandemic. Similarly, in emerging and developing countries, their small-medium enterprises that forms the back-bone of their economy are also surviving this pandemic better than other businesses.
