Technology Trends: Improving People’s Lives and Their Living Spaces
Technology advances, but new technology is only useful if it can be applied to solve human and business problems. To that end, human practicality was a primary criteria Gartner used to identify the top 10 most important technology trends for 2020. Gartner looked to see if the technology is capable of altering people’s lives and the places where they live and work.
Brian Burke, Gartner Research VP, said that “rather than building a technology stack and then exploring the potential applications, organizations must consider the business and human context first.”
Val Sribar, senior research vice president at Gartner, said that “it’s been 50 years since the first message was sent across what became the internet. In 50 years we’ve seen technology transform our enterprises, our relationships, and society itself. The next five years may bring as much change as those last 50.”
Below is an infographic from Gartner that list their picks for the top ten Strategic Technologies for 2020.
From: David Cearley, vice president at Gartner, said that “people-centric smart spaces are the structure used to organize and evaluate the primary impact of the Gartner top strategic technology trends for 2020. Putting people at the center of your technology strategy highlights one of the most important aspects of technology — how it impacts customers, employees, business partners, society or other key constituencies. Arguably all actions of the organization can be attributed to how it impacts these individuals and groups either directly or indirectly. This is a people-centric approach.”
