My own Crystal Ball gazing (grazing???)
Dramatic growth of research in Asia (Western dominance in publishing will end)
Economies of scale will not determine success - value of publications increase with usage - a successful publisher will drive usage
Even greater automation in production workflows on the cards
Platform neutrality essential to cost-effective digital publishing
Custom solutions will become the rule not the exception
Web will become the dominant distribution channel but niche market for printed products will always remain
Authorship will change platforms - MS Word could be replaced by a mobile camera used to create a video
Leadership/management supplemented by sufficient digital skills (marketing, digital media, analytics) essential for sustaining publishing
Peer review models will change to facilitate speedy publication
