Our Name

Our name was taken from Alvin Toffler’s book, “The Third Wave”.  In the book Toffler describes three types of societies, based on the concept of 'waves' - each wave pushes the older societies and cultures aside.

  • The First Wave is the settled agricultural society which prevailed in much of the world after the Neolithic Revolution, which replaced hunter-gatherer cultures.
     
  • The Second Wave is Industrial Age society. The Second Wave began in Western Europe with the Industrial Revolution, and subsequently spread across the world. Key aspects of Second Wave society are the nuclear family, a factory-type education system and the corporation.
     
  • The Third Wave is the post-industrial society. Toffler says that since the late 1950s most countries have been transitioning from a Second Wave society into a Third Wave society. He coined many words to describe it and mentions names invented by others, such as the Information Age.

As technology providers, Third Wave Business Systems offers solutions that position our clients at the front line of this revolution, streamlining and automating business processes, and giving them a competitive advantage in their industry.
