Technology is changing the world at a rapid pace. From smartphones to robots, we’re always connected and able to stay connected at all times. Communication is no longer just face-to-face or handwritten in the past, but instantaneous and immediate via a multitude of channels including voice assistants, text, and video calls.

The latest technology has enhanced the quality of our lives from generation to generation. It’s not without risks particularly when it comes to the market for jobs. Many are concerned that the new technology will replace human jobs, and this could occur to a certain extent. We know from past experience, however, that the creation of new jobs can help offset the loss of a few jobs.

We are already seeing this in the workplace thanks to advances in artificial intelligence, natural language processing, and robotics. We are also experiencing the impact of drones Blockchains, 5G networks, and quantum computing.

These technologies will transform the business process with increased levels of automation connectivity, security and connectivity. Blockchains, for instance, are reshaping the supply chain by making it more secure and providing an indelible history of transactions. And 5G will enable businesses to process data closer where it originated (ultra low latency) and to attain data sovereignty, and increase security by reducing data transfer costs.

Furthermore, augmented and virtual reality are changing how we interact with technology and information, creating immersive experiences that look and feel like real life. We are also witnessing significant progress in areas like gene editing, which can reduce the incidence of genetic diseases like muscular dystrophy as well as cystic fibrosis.
