2023 Tech Trends for Startups

We summarized the trends that will significantly influence the market in 2023, from AI and machine learning security to using visually three-dimensional and interactive content on the Web.

It is an excellent opportunity to keep a clear business perspective and analyze how to use the resources of your Startup wisely to streak ahead.

1. Security.?

Leveraging AI and machine learning will help mitigate risk next year, enabling them to detect and react to cyber threats faster and in real-time, predict future threats and incidents, and identify fraud/minimize associated losses.?

As application workloads continue to move into the cloud and also from the cloud to the edge, real-time cloud-native Application Protection software will become a requirement to thwart the rise in sophisticated and costly attacks by cybercriminals.

2. The IT Talent Shortage will Accelerate.?

Despite the economic slowdown and layoffs in specific industries, we still see an unrelenting demand for certain high-demand tech skills. Many companies are trying to stay ahead. The number of new startups entering the market last year broke the record as featured by the Economic Innovation Group. The competition for talent is even more challenging, and it will continue into 2023.

3.? E-commerce growth

The development of e-commerce is already in trend, and it will continue to grow. It’s not just about products but also about services. Innovations will touch on promotion tools and technologies, and augmented reality will have an essential role in this new consumer trend.

3D multi-modal interaction paradigms will be revolutionary for e-commerce, bringing spatial UI and gesture recognition into an immersive shopping experience. Metaverse intends to create virtual experiences for consumers that promote electronic commerce. The objective of this year will be that all the activities that happen in real life can also be done virtually at home, with the help of artificial intelligence.

4. The 3D Web

3D Web refers to the use of visually three-dimensional and interactive content on the Web, with technologies such as VR/AR/MR/XR: virtual, augmented, mixed, cross, and extended realities. That involves the creation of 3D content, animation, interaction, visualization, and processing.

The trend of 3D on the Web is a key element of creating metaverses, which is the context in which we will move from here on out in the digital ecosystem.

Ash Jhaveri, VP of Reality Labs Partnerships at Meta, says:

?I guarantee that every enterprise has at least one, if not five, or ten things that could actually be much better if they were in 3D.

5. Sustainable development

Currently, many consumers are actively involved in raising awareness and environmental protection. That is a growing trend that will reinforce in 2023. This tendency is in sync with ESG (environmental, social, and governance) investments by venture capital that we have introduced in the eBook How to Create Successful Digital Products.

People will prefer sustainable products and pet-friendly brands. It will be essential for brands to commit to these actions actively and to generate a positive impact.

This environmental commitment is driven by a change in social conduct, which is why consumers will also give great importance to responsible and ethical consumption initiatives, the values that companies uphold, and the well-being they seek for their employees.
