The Need

The COVID19 pandemic has changed the world especially the way it perceives technology. New technologies have been adopted by diverse industries in ways that were not thought possible even a few years back.  Entire business sectors are moving 20-25 times faster than they thought possible on things like developing supply-chain redundancies, enhancing data security, and increasing the use of advanced technologies.[1]

 A Report published by Gartner on The IT roadmap for data and analytics[2] says that by the end of 2024, 75% of enterprises will shift from piloting to operationalizing AI thereby driving a 5x increase in streaming data and analytics infrastructure. By 2023, more than 33% of large organizations will have analysts practicing decision intelligence. By 2022, public cloud services will be essential for 90% of data and analytics innovation. By 2022, 35% of large organizations will be either sellers or buyers of data via formal online data marketplaces, up from 25% in 2020. Blockchain technology will provide the full lineage of assets, transactions, and transparency for complex networks of participants.

For stakeholders in the education system, this has created new challenges. We need to keep our fingers on the pulse of market trends. We need to be aware of new technologies and their directions. And we need to ensure that we are on the ball when it comes to reskilling our students around the most relevant technologies of the future so that we can enhance their career prospects.
