This is the list of the best small businesses opportunities for 2018, chosen from across a variety of industries.
Here are my picks for the best small business ideas based on current trends in business and demographics.
1. Virtual Reality
Virtual reality computing (VR) is a huge leap forward in immersing the user in a realistic sensory experience. Hardware and software vendors are working furiously to bring new VR products to the marketplace and the industry is growing at a parabolic rate - according to statista by 2020 the worldwide size of the VR market will be in excess of $40 billion.
The potential uses of virtual reality for business or pleasure are practically limitless, for example:
3D movies - watching a movie in 360 degree VR
Real estate marketing - imagine searching for a new home and being able to take an online VR walk through of an advertised house from the comfort of your desk chair
Gaming - VR is revolutionizing the gaming industry, with new VR titles being released on an almost weekly basis
2. Software Engineering and Development
Software engineers and developers create, test and maintain software on a variety of platforms, from mainframes to mobile devices. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, the demand for software developers is expected to increase by 17 percent each year through 2023, and the median pay in 2014 was slightly over $100,000 per year.
The nature of the software development industry makes it ideal for contract employment. Many software engineers start out as salaried employees and eventually become self-employed contractors. Cloud computing and ease of remote access make software development an ideal home-based business.

Bali United akan melawan Persija Jakarta dalam partai final Piala Presiden 2018 di Stadion Utama Gelora Bung Karno, Senayan, Jakarta (17/02/18). Ini adalah partai pertama mereka bertemu pasca renovasi SUGBK.
Bali United sebelumnya menang 1-0 melawan Sriwijaya FC. Sementara Persija, menang agregat 5-2 dari PSMS Medan yang harus gugur. PSMS dan Sriwijaya akan memperebutkan tempat ketiga.
Fans cantik Bali United, Ayu Puspa Anggraeni Putri, langsung terbang dari Bali ke Jakarta untuk mendukung langsung tim kesayangannya bertanding. Ayu terbang dari Bali melalui Bandara I Gusti Ngurahrai pukul 20.30 WIB Jumat malam. Dia ke Jakarta bersama para Semethon (sebutan fans Bali United).
“Kalo masalah pesta golnya sih gak harus, berharap bisa menang dengan permainan terbaik aja. Mau skornya berapa aja no problem,” kata Ayu Puspa saat dihubungi INDOSPORT hari ini (17/02/18).

Ia juga meminta para fans Bali United mewaspadai para pemain Persija, terutama Marko Simic. Karena Simic memang terbukti selalu mencetak gol kala dirinya dipasang sebagai starting.
“Semua pemain Persija harus diwaspadai, karena ini permainan team bukan individu. Tapi kalau di tanya siapa yang paling diwaspadai yaitu Marko Simic.”
Sudah jauh-jauh bertandang ke Jakarta, tentunya Ayu tak ingin timnya itu menerima kekalahan. Dia menginginkan Bali United dapat bermain lepas dan berusaha memberi yang terbaik untuk para fans yang hadir di SUGBK nanti malam.

“Harusnya sih mainnya all out. Ini partai final, semua tim punya peluang sama, apalagi perjuangan serdadu tridatu untuk sampai disini gak mudah, tentunya juga mereka pengen ngasi kado yg indah buat fans yang jauh-jauh datang memberi dukungan,” tambahnya.
Ayu sendiri rela meminta cuti dari bosnya dikantor demi bisa menyaksikan pertandingan final ini. Memang ia telah merencanakan ke berangkatannya dari jauh, jika Bali tembus partai final. Dan akhirnya, dia sampai di Jakarta pada Jumat malam (16/07/18) kemarin.
Sebelumnya, Bali United sendiri baru menerima kekalahan atas Yangon United di partai perdananya di Grup G Piala AFC. Satu gol dari Bruno Costa menyelamatkan muka Serdadu Tridatu yang mampu merubah skor kosong mereka. Meski tetap menerima kekalahan 3-1 di kandang mereka, Stadion I Wayan Dipta, Gianyar Bali.
