Tech Trends 2021: A Government Perspective. 5g will change the world, here’s how. While there’s been talk for some time about the difference the next generation of mobile technology is likely to make to the way we live, it has been unclear just how 5G will change the world.
According to Mark Melling, 5G lead and head of Verizon Media’s branded content agency RYOT Studio, the shift centres on 5G’s ability to “supercharge technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI), augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), to make them available for mass consumption”. This scenario is possible because not only are connection speeds estimated to be between ten and one hundred times faster than 4G’s, but more data can also be transmitted across the network with minimal delay. Reliability is likewise much greater as connections do not drop out. As a result, it becomes feasible to move much of the processing currently undertaken by individual devices into the cloud, which in turn enables the creation of a whole new set of richer applications and digital experiences.
Overcoming the core-technology transformation stalemate. Across almost all sectors, large companies face an unprecedented wave of technology demand requiring significant transformation—often while grappling with rising costs and shrinking margins.
Facing strong market pressures that demand compelling action to transform, many executives struggle with where or how to pivot, how to prioritize, and where to invest. This struggle is due to the heavy investments needed to repair aging systems, the need to pay off “technical debt” (the extra investment required today to fix yesterday’s tactical decisions and suboptimal technical solutions), and a growing shortage of talent. The demands from regulators for greater risk controls, especially in service industries such as banking and telecommunications, is also putting immense pressure on technology departments.

Even in the best of times, managers face a huge roster of tasks across a wide range of priorities — handling daily operations, tracking progress toward corporate goals, planning for the future, overseeing individuals on their teams, and more.
The pace of work has also grown exponentially in recent years within companies, as has the complexity. Now, with the COVID-19 pandemic bringing massive upheaval, the list of tasks has grown even longer — and, due to layoffs, absences, and new work arrangements, these tasks must often be achieved with smaller teams.

The Code Company works with digital publishers and media organisations regularly to go through the process of migrating and replatforming to WordPress.
These projects range from smaller data migration projects to those significantly more complex, such as merging several sites and publications from different platforms onto a unified WordPress platform. It’s become increasingly obvious to us that these projects often occur in the context of broader organisational change. Replatforming is sometimes driven by business needs— resulting from acquisitions or mergers for example—or the technology itself is being used as a vehicle to drive change. Principal of The Code Company, Ben May, took the opportunity to talk to Dr Jen Frahm, Founder of Conversations of Change and the Agile Change Leadership Institute about the things we need to consider when managing change.

Managing the fallout from technology transformations. Companies are improving business performance as a result of technology-transformation efforts and largely see advanced technologies and strong IT performance as both competitive differentiators and drivers of growth.

According to the results of the latest McKinsey Global Survey on the topic, nearly all respondents’ organizations—99 percent—have pursued a large-scale technology transformation in the past two years. Reflections on technology from Davos 2020. Technology Vision 2020. It means smart chatbots interacting with customers as they do now, but being able to better understand the nuances and underlying possibilities of a customer’s request. For example, instead of just responding to a passenger’s question about whether they can bring crutches on board, an airline chatbot might flag the likely mobility issue, offer wheelchair assistance at the airport, and even check the itinerary to see if an easier connection is available.
