Harnessing the power of emerging technologies
Executives worldwide are well aware that technological changes are coming at them at an increasing pace. And they know that the success of their businesses depends in part on wringing maximum competitive advantage from technologies like blockchain, quantum computing, conversational AI, immersive technology, internet of things (IoT) and security and privacy.
What they’re less certain about is how to master that array of technologies and, in particular, if they have the right people and capabilities in place to do so. Muddying matters: They see the newest technologies as more interdependent and thus more challenging to adopt than the technologies of just a few years ago.

Understanding the opportunities and challenges
These were among the results from the recent Avanade survey of 1,200 executives around the world. Respondents were asked about the opportunities and challenges they see in adopting the most talked-about technologies. Our executive summary provides a look at key findings, combined with our perspective and recommendations about how to make the most of these emerging technologies.
The research underpins our Avanade Trendlines program on emerging trends that impact the design, innovation and technology choices of large organisations.

Emerging technologies, growing challenges
