Insight Story: Tech Trends Unpacked

4. How do you get the best return on your tech investment?

Recent research found that, GE, Ford and other major players poured 1.3 trillion US dollars into digital transformation. 70 percent of it – $900 billion – went into programs that failed. You know you need tech for competitive advantage – but which tech? And when you’ve got it, how do you ensure it’s used effectively? We get answers from two digital transformation experts:
Olivier Blanchard (US) – Research Director for future analysts The Futurum Group
Arun Narayanan (US) – Chief Digital Officer at renewable energy service providers RES
Some businesses are approaching tech investments in the wrong way – for example, trying to find uses for every new tech that comes out. Olivier and Arun expand on the approaches to choosing the right tech that they’ve seen work in many sectors.
Dr. Amin Hasbini of Kaspersky’s Global Research and Analysis Team talks about how to leverage employee ‘cyber hygiene’ training to ensure the success of new tech.

3. How will quantum computing change the business world? Insight Story

In 2019, Google’s quantum computer made a calculation in four minutes that would’ve taken the fastest supercomputer 10,000 years. That’s 158 million times faster. What does quantum computing mean for business? What should you do about it now? We find out from two experts working at the heart of this new technology and its applications:
Oliver Thomson Brown (UK,) Chancellor’s Fellow at EPCC (formerly Edinburgh Parallel Computing Centre,) University of Edinburgh
Henning Soller (Germany,) Partner and Director of Quantum Research, McKinsey & Company
Although quantum computing is still at the demonstration stage, some businesses are already exploring how it could help them get ahead. Its processing speed could reshape sectors from medical research to aviation to finance.
But quantum computing’s great power could also be applied to cybercrime – like beating encryption. Dr. Amin Hasbini of Kaspersky’s Global Research and Analysis Team illuminates how cyber researchers are working to protect the future that will soon be here.
