Emerging Technologies: The Catalyst Of Change

According to a Harvard Business Review survey, 58% of respondents say they have seen increased collaboration by implementing IoT-based initiatives. Through IoT, organizations are able to create a real presence for employees anywhere in the world.

2. Artificial Intelligence

AI implementation has helped organizations facilitate intelligent collaboration by building infrastructure that shares data.

3. Big Data

Big Data has helped organizations eliminate the intuition factor and reduce the amount of time taken to make decisions. Now, employees can collaborate and make accurate decisions through data-driven results.

4. Chatbot

Through chatbots, organizations have been able to create an intelligent environment where employees can easily plan and schedule interactions, respond to text/voice commands and contextualize events.

5. AR And VR

AR and VR solutions are changing how organizations collaborate. Simple productivity tools, such as video conferencing and live chats, have been replaced with immersive face-to-face interactions that feature real facial expressions and physical gestures.
