From the accelerating shift in digital transformation to a deep realization of the need for a greener future, the COVID-19 has disrupted everything, reorienting the way we work, play and live. As we progress towards the new beginning, it’s an opportune time for enterprises to look back and connect dots.
The disruption is here to stay and that calls for transforming this crisis into the new normal. As we welcome the beginning of a new decade, here are the five trends to watch out for in the year 2021.
The 5G future
While India gears up for 5G adoption in 2021, the concerns around network and data security are also looming large. From the user point of view it could not be a better time as many of us would be working from home and a faster internet would be a boon. However, 5G is not just about consumer mobile services as it will reset the order of internet-based services as well.
Being an all-encompassing transformative technology, once 5G will be set in motion with optimum application, it will soon be the oxygen to our hybrid virtual ecosystem across industries. This is so, simply because the technology is dynamic and versatile in nature and can fuel internet of things (IoT) and intelligent use and management of data even more superiorly.
