Jackie FennA renewed focus on innovation is driving organizations to focus not just on the continuing flood of new technologies, but also the inextricable relationship of technology with business and societal trends. As whole new categories emerging from the lab into the mainstream – virtual world economies, collective intelligence, ultra low cost client devices – Gartner's emerging trends radar screen identifies the most disruptive trends and highlights real world examples of innovative business applications.
Key Issues:
  • What societal and business trends will drive emerging technology opportunities?
  • What are the most-disruptive trends and most-significant opportunities arising from emerging information technology?
  • What are the most effective strategies and tactics for managing the evaluation, transfer and deployment of emerging technologies?
