Opportunities (noun) means: a possible condition that may lead to a benefit. It emerges from possible, condition, cause, benefits: when a possible condition interacts with a reason for change, it gives rise to an advantageous outcome. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 11, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
