More importantly, some companies are starting to hire people in applied category theory. Whether this continues will depend on what these people do. But for now, we can expect some articles about category theory in business-related publications, typically written by people who don't know anything about category theory. Other branches of science are more used to this. By the way, I didn't see these posts until someone told me about them, because I use gmail, and gmail declared them to be spam - probably because they claim to come from someone's address, but they come from another address (categories@mta.ca). I've told gmail that no email from categories@mta.ca is spam. If you use a service that aggressively blocks spam, you might want to look in your spam box for posts from this list!
