Battery energy storage has become core infrastructure for utilities, industry, and mission-critical sites. Buyers aren’t purchasing “batteries,” they’re buying bankable, multi-hour capacity with safety, controls, and warranties. By 2030, value shifts from cells to integrated, finance-ready systems that deliver grid services, peak shaving, resilience, and predictable lifecycle performance.
Advanced composites are shifting from “exotic materials” to production-critical systems in aerospace, automotive, wind, and infrastructure. Buyers now demand qualified fiber/resin systems, repeatable cycle times, traceability, repairability, and end-of-life credibility. Winning suppliers aren’t just selling carbon fiber and prepreg, they’re selling process readiness, documentation, kitting, and supply reliability under audit pressure.
EV adoption is not purely consumer-driven; it’s policy-driven. Incentives, emissions rules, charging mandates, and local content requirements shape pricing, supply chains, and automaker strategy. The winners will be the OEMs that localize batteries, meet tightening fleet CO₂ targets, lock in charging and energy services revenue, and survive policy volatility across regions.
Indoor farming is shifting from marketing story to infrastructure. High tech greenhouses and vertical farms sell predictable volume, food safety, and year round supply to retailers and foodservice buyers. The winners control energy cost, automate labor, lock in offtake contracts, and operate like reliable manufacturing assets rather than lifestyle agriculture brands.
Advanced Air Mobility is being treated like commercial aviation, not experimental flight. FAA and EASA require proof of safety, redundancy, battery containment, production quality, and continued airworthiness. The companies that win are the ones that can certify, manufacture under AS9100 style control, and support fleets in service, not just fly prototypes.
Financial analytics is shifting from backward-looking reports to a real-time decision layer for revenue, cash, risk, and compliance. CFOs now need scenario modeling, liquidity visibility, audit-ready traceability, and AI-backed anomaly detection. The winners build governed, explainable, always-on analytics that can both inform the board quickly and withstand regulatory scrutiny.
Defense C4ISR and multi-domain command-and-control M&A remains hot in 2025, with 37 deals year-to-date, up 2.8 percent. Strategic buyers and private equity are paying premium multiples for ISR data, mission software, and fielded C2 programs, highlighted by Redwire’s 925 million Edge Autonomy acquisition at 12.9x EV/EBITDA and Army reconnaissance access.
