To create a more balanced and equitable workforce, the industry needs to understand how crucial moments of truth draw women to tech careers—or push them away.
Making high-speed internet access available to those who lack it—in both developing and developed nations—is a critical task for the global community.
CEOs should respond proactively, act decisively, and provide a clear agenda. Focusing on five priorities now is key.
Telcos play a unique role in building and sustaining connections in a functioning society. Protecting this capability must be their top priority.
As entertainment, print, and gaming companies pursue subscriptions in a crowded field, they need to create the right offer at the right price for the right customers—or risk losing them altogether.
Many tech companies are reaching middle age and need to reinvent and transform themselves to stay relevant. They also need to broaden their core purpose to address their role and influence in society and their effect on the environment.
Operators have struggled to break free from the familiar constraints of regulation, legacy, and often-unfavorable competitive dynamics. Rather than bleed outdated business models dry, the future demands that they be bolder in strategy and execution.
As the 2010s closed, the technology, media, and telecommunications (TMT) sector was standing strong. Seven TMT companies were among the ten most valuable public companies in the world. Do they have the right ingredients to sustain that performance in the 2020s?
The future will not be as dire as many predict—so long as we work together to meet our most pressing challenges and apply the solutions with diligence and consistency.
The public cloud has emerged as an important technology platform offering benefits to businesses that extend far beyond convenient data storage and innovative applications. By boosting internal productivity, ensuring a robust security environment and providing the technology and tools such as artificial intelligence and machine learning to enable digital transformation, the public cloud makes it possible for companies to develop new revenue streams and drive higher productivity within their organizations.
As users realize its benefits, public cloud adoption is set to drive significant economic value in key APAC markets through GDP and employment uplift. Impact can be further boosted as providers, users and regulators address adoption challenges.
