Technology Vision 2019

Digital is now simply the price of admission for doing business, and the next epic disruption is coming. This report by Accenture looks at the opportunities on offer, including five emerging trends which will reshape businesses.

These technology trends are:

DARQ Power: Distributed ledger technology, artificial intelligence, extended reality, and quantum computing will be the next set of new technologies to spark a step change, letting businesses reimagine entire industries.
Unlock unique customers and unique opportunities: Technology-driven interactions are creating an expanding tech identity for every consumer. This living foundation of knowledge will be key to not only understanding the next generation of consumers, but also to delivering rich, individualised, experience-based relationships in the post-digital age.
Human+ Worker: Workforces are becoming 'human+' - each individual is empowered by their skillsets and knowledge plus a new, constantly growing set of capabilities made possible through technology.
Enterprises are not victims, they’re vectors: Leading businesses are recognising that just as they already collaborate with entire ecosystems to deliver the best-in-class products, services, and experiences, it’s time for security to join that list as well.
Meet consumers’ needs at the speed of now: Technology is creating a world of intensely customised and on-demand experiences, and companies must reinvent their organisations to find and capture those opportunities as they come.
