Deloitte Releases 10th Annual Tech Trends Report, Exploring Technologies That Help Companies Thrive in a Climate of Disruption and UncertaintyNEW YORK, Jan. 16, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Deloitte released its milestone 10th annual report on technology trends, "Tech Trends 2019: Beyond the digital frontier." The report explores how the convergence of new technologies with powerful technological forces is driving disruption across industries. New technologies include advanced networking, serverless computing and intelligent interfaces; and technological forces encompassing digital experiences, cognitive and cloud. Ten years ago, when smartphones and mobile apps were gaining traction, and technologies like cloud and the Internet of Things were emerging on the scene, Deloitte released its first Tech Trends report. The organization has watched this evolution unfold as the digital imperative and the changing role of technology redefine the enterprise, yet adoption of these trends continues to vary widely. Some companies are only beginning to explore trends Deloitte wrote about in 2010, while others have advanced rapidly along the maturity curve. "Make no mistake: Technology is not just an enabling function. Tech is the universal language of business today," said Bill Briggs, global and U.S. chief technology officer for Deloitte Consulting LLP. "As the pace of change quickens, technology now leads business strategy. And Technology Trends has evolved from a CIO and CTO concern into something driving CEO, management team, boardroom agendas — to redefine what enterprises can accomplish." "Tech Trends 2019: Beyond the digital frontier" begins with a reflection on a decade of disruptive change driven by nine macro forces: digital experience, analytics, cloud, core modernization, cyber, business of information technology, cognitive, blockchain, and digital reality. The report further explores where these forces are headed.
The final chapter explores how modern businesses can navigate digital transformation — building a roadmap that incorporates the right technologies, techniques, talent and executive support. "While we take a pragmatic view, we also aspire to understand fully how forces like serverless technology, connectivity capabilities, and intelligent interfaces are reshaping industries," said Scott Buchholz, managing director and government and public services CTO, Deloitte Consulting LLP. "The report details how organizational leadership can shape ambitions and instill a culture to sense and make sense of what tomorrow may bring. And – importantly – a path to get there from the realities of today."
