Emerging Technologies Strategy: Identify and Implement the Best Options

Organizations are continually challenged by rapidly evolving technologies that profoundly impact the way they deal with their customers, partners and workforce. Some will adapt and survive; others will not.

Amazon, Uber, and Tesla are excellent examples of companies winning in today’s global marketplace. They are a part of a digital business revolution that requires businesses to continually reinvent themselves using the latest technologies just to stay alive. These and other companies know that an effective Emerging Technologies strategy will help them create better products and services, engage more effectively with their digital clients, significantly drive down costs, and stay one step ahead of their competition. Will your company follow Amazon, Uber and Tesla’s trajectory or that of Polaroid, Radio Shack, and Borders Books?

The reasons to implement Emerging Technologies are compelling, but the options can be overwhelming:

Virtual and Augmented Reality
Digital Hotel (customer communities)
5G
Identity Resolution
Artificial Intelligence/ Machine Learning
Internet of Things
Wearables
Mobile apps/mobile technologies
Personalized, Digital Videos
Addressable TV
Digital Portals
Blockchain

Challenges abound. Unreliable information as to how to select the right technologies, inaccurate cost-of-ownership data and difficulty forecasting accurate return-on-investment are just examples. Many organizations either give up, move too slowly or make significant mistakes. We help you avoid these outcomes.
