The year 2021 has passed and there is a lot that we can take from it. Businesses have grown and developed. To prepare for 2022 we have to look at past, current and future trends.
In this week’s tech recap, we look at Processes that businesses are automating right now, tech trends and companies to watch in 2022, Five stories that shook up the enterprise in 2021 and more tech career opportunities.
Five processes that businesses are automating right now:
In the business environment, as we adapt to the hybrid workplace, executives have worked quickly to keep employees safe, whilst adopting work-from-home policies and environments to keep the wheels of commerce turning.
The greatest focus has been on streamlining processes to support top-line revenues. These accelerated efforts towards business efficiency have unveiled the top five business processes that seem ready for automation this year.
The tech trends and companies to watch in 2022:
Tech companies have thrived during the pandemic. As billions of people shifted their lives further online, myriad opportunities opened up for startups to explore.
Speedy grocery delivery apps have grown from nothing into a billion dollar industry, cybersecurity has boomed, and the development of fintech has accelerated.
Tech companies have helped remote and hybrid working function, encouraged young people to invest in stocks, and helped crypto hit the mainstream. There was also Mark Zuckerberg that got everyone talking about the metaverse.
Five stories that shook up the enterprise in 2021:
For one thing, there’s big money in the enterprise, like Oracle buying Cerner last week for $28 billion and shaking up the healthcare vertical while they were at it, or UiPath going from obscure start-up to $35 billion RPA juggernaut earlier this year, before falling back a bit after going public.
There’s intrigue, like when activist investors try to force companies to make moves they normally wouldn’t want to make, and battles for control of the board like we saw at Box this year.
