Industrial Automation
Industries are seriously looking at emerging technologies and automation as they play a crucial role in building resilient businesses. Automation is especially needed to combat labor shortages, cut costs, and ease the negative consequences of supply chain disruption. This includes cybersecurity and technologies that replace human labor, such as robotics, or help workers collaborate remotely, such as digital twins, wearable tech, and VR and AR. In this context, technologies like artificial intelligence (AI) and the Industrial Internet will function as the backbone of industrial automation. The sensors and actuators that are not built into industrial machinery generate data that AI will harvest to support efficiency gains and cost reduction.
Some of the top themes driving industrial automation are artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, industrial internet, wearable tech, and robotics.

Cloud Services
The five giants dominating over the cloud services sector are Amazon, Microsoft, Alibaba, Google, and Kyndryl. In 2023, no new entrants will significantly disrupt the status quo, as the capital cost involved in building the necessary infrastructure presents a very high barrier to market entry. For established players, integrating data from more sources through hybrid cloud services and offering services to support emerging technologies that enhance modern apps, including AI, automated workflows, and observability, will be vital in meeting customer demand at a low cost. The need to offer flexibility, agility, and improved operational provisioning, due in part to emerging DevOps strategies and the digital transformation urgency caused by COVID-19, will drive the adoption of software-defined data center (SDDC) technology and new partnerships with companies in different parts of the cloud value chain.
Some of the themes driving cloud services are artificial intelligence, software defined networks (SDNs), Internet of Things, Enterprise Software as a Service (SaaS), and Cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS).

E-Commerce
In today’s convenience-focused society, ecommerce has become a part of people’s lifestyles, from buying goods to booking shared car rides. Ecommerce is not a new way to shop, but it gained significant momentum during the pandemic as physical stores temporarily closed for business worldwide. Developments in disruptive technology themes, such as AI, the metaverse, cybersecurity, robotics, and digital payments, will fuel the evolution of ecommerce. These technologies will enable companies to protect consumer data, personalize consumer experiences, and provide frictionless ordering over the next two to three years.
Some of the themes driving e-commerce are the metaverse, artificial intelligence, data privacy, supply chain management, and social media.

Telecom Services
The telecom service provider sector faces economic challenges, influenced by the global geopolitical situation and issues with supply chains caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, carriers continue to rationalize their offerings, influenced by advances in cloud, enterprise digitalization, virtualization, telecom convergence, and cybersecurity. To meet the needs of enterprises and consumers, telcos continue to become operationally agile in the way they connect in the digital ecosystem, bundle services, focus on customer experience, and introduce new business models in new segments.
Some of the top themes driving telecom services are 5G, cybersecurity, digitalization, Internet of Things, and the future of work.
