| NOTAS: | "Companies’ ability to withstand the operational impacts of COVID-19 has been hugely
dependent on their progress along the digital transformation path – how fast they could move
to new operating models, preserve and even enhance customer experiences, turn up the dial
on efficiencies and generally how they fared against competitors. Even in the first few weeks, it
became apparent that businesses built on more flexible digital platforms were coping far better
than those clinging to traditional ways of working.
But winning in the new business reality that COVID-19 is creating won’t just be about how well
companies performed out of the starting gate. A big part of long-term success will be how fast
companies can use newer technologies – the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI)
and 5G networks – to reach full digital transformation.
This primary research paper was designed to find out the specifics about how business leaders in
key vertical industries intend to deploy and operationalize 5G and an AI-enhanced IoT, what they
are looking for from these initiatives, and their expectations about the use cases and outcomes
these emergent technology fields will support." |
