The business arena is always evolving. Along with technology and the Internet, various innovations are continually being developed to deliver solutions and to open new opportunities. In the last 10 years or so, more and more innovative solutions are being developed to cater to the growing needs of businesses. Some of these innovations have changed lives not just for business owners but to consumers as well.
So, what are the most notable innovations hailed as “game changers” in business these days? Here are some of the thriving ones:
Drones. What used to be a hobby-based industry, drones have become a must-have commodity in the agricultural and industrial market. Farmers and factories make use of drones to improve their operations as well as make better monitoring of field works. Commercial services like that of Amazon are also earning praise for their use of drone and we can expect more to come in the years to come.
Perpetual Connectivity. Wi-Fi will become a thing of the past. Telecommunication signals will become more available as tech innovations focus on nano-sensors. Wireless gadgets will repurpose radio signals to power their own selves and communicate.
Ultra Encryption. Privacy issues are continually gnawing at the root of communication channels. Today, companies are gearing for ultra-encryption allowing voice calls, SMS, files and attachments, emails, and other online communication to be protected from “eavesdroppers”. Smartphones will come equipped with such encryption software and tools to secure data and tighten privacy.
Collaborative Mobile Platform. New apps like Quip help to correct the current infrastructure in work collaboration. Now, you and your team can work together every step of the process in the same digital environment. This makes current workflows more efficient and more productive.
Virtual Reality. Facebook’s purchase of Oculus Rift has opened a whole new world in virtual reality. While immersive video games are becoming ultra-popular, virtual reality’s impact to businesses has also become more profound. Now, the same technology is extending an arm of support to emergency response training, architecture design, therapies, training, and much more.
Voice Tech. It is time to forget typing search terms when looking for something. Alexa, Siri, Cortana, Google, and a hodgepodge of voice recognition system will become a norm. Voice technology will make more effective speech interfaces leaving tech usage more interactive. This technology, though not yet perfect, will eventually deliver a more nimble future to businesses.
As technology continues to soar, more innovative processes and solutions will be available for businesses to become more productive. Be on the lookout for fresh new ideas in the market. Do not be left behind in utter obsolescence.
