WHERE DO THE GENUINE OPPORTUNITIES FOR BUSINESS GROWTH LIE, NOW AND IN THE FUTURE?
We live in a world in which proponents of new technologies claim that they have the potential to dramatically change our lives, and the technologies seem to emerge on an almost weekly basis.
Some of these technologies go on to become massive market successes whilst others fail to meet the requirements for business realisation. Nevertheless, we always aim to think beyond the hype, identifying genuine technology game-changers and attempt to find those characteristics which ensure market breakthrough.
CWIC 2018: 'Thinking Beyond the Hype' will explore the technologies, business models and impact of seven technology areas through a vibrant mix of panel sessions, keynotes and networking opportunities:
- 5G and network innovation
- Artificial intelligence and machine learning
- Blockchain
- Future mobility ecosystems
- Industrial IoT and the connected enterprise
- Mixed reality
- Satellites
The conference will take place on July 4th, located just outside Cambridge at the world-famous Wellcome Genome Campus. Apart from the seven challenge areas, there will also be plenary keynote sessions on the overall theme of the conference. Throughout the day there will be an exhibition of leading edge technology innovation, with the conference concluding with a drinks reception and a splendid dinner at Hinxton Hall.
The Top 3 technology areas for me are
- 5G and Network Innovation
- Artificial Intelligence and machine learning
- Industrial IOT and the connected enterprise
But I might be surprised by the others and remain to be convinced !!
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is now upon us and communication technologies lie at the heart of this revolution. This is no longer just "minor updates" - it is disruptive change on a massive scale with enormous societal implications
