The most important things that happened in tech this year, according to the NYU Future Labs

What were the biggest developments in technology and innovation this year? According to Mina Salib, of NYU Tandon’s Future Labs, they included the Hyperloop, Pokémon Go, Facebook’s bots and Snapchat Spectacles.
In a piece published last Wednesday, 2016’s Top 12 Game-Changing Tech Stories, Salib goes month-by-month, offering his own take on the importance of each event.
It’s been a busy year for NYU Tandon’s Future Labs incubators: WeDidIt graduated from the Digital Future Lab after winning a half a million dollar prize in Buffalo. Uber acquired Data Future Lab startup Geometric Intelligence, and Urban Future Lab alum HEVO produced a charging port for driverless cars.
