What is Tech?

Tech, or technology, is the application of knowledge into forms of software, machinery or goods designed to solve a problem or satisfy a need. More than just tools or gadgets, technology is a vehicle of transformation that not only acknowledges our past and shapes our present, but defines our future.

Since the advent of the digital revolution, technology has advanced at a rapid pace in the past few years and has transformed our lives in the most profound ways. The development of the internet has put knowledge and connectivity at our fingertips. The dawn of social media changed the way individuals interacted with their immediate circles, brands, and the world. The rise of artificial intelligence brings completely new possibilities that we’re yet to fully comprehend.

Technological advancements have also shifted countless industries by introducing smart software into machinery, transforming and escalating supply chains, logistics, product manufacturing processes and more. Beyond living our lives online, we’re subtly dependent on technology in our ‘offline’ lives too.

To John, technology is more than a mobile phone or self-driving car:

As the driving force that is responsible for some of the best products, services and offers of the modern world, when technological innovation is incorporated into decision-making, organizations can develop entirely new solutions that meet consumer needs in compelling ways. Thanks to the immense power that technology presents, organizations can alchemise ideas, concepts and wishes from the unimaginable into reality.

Technology and artificial intelligence are changing the current business landscape at an unprecedented pace. To stay relevant, ahead of the curve and ready to welcome the oncoming changes, organizations must introduce technology-driven innovation into all areas of their operations.
