Last week’s news was dominated by artificial intelligence, this week, digital business and, in particular, business agility, are major themes. The vast majority (84%) of organisations believe an inability to quickly roll-out new services and applications to their workforce is impacting their ability to stay ahead of the competition, according to new research from Capita and Citrix. Meanwhile, research from Econocom, a European digital services company, has revealed that over half of office workers believe access to the latest workplace technology would make them more productive. Additionally, 43% said this would make them feel more valued, while 38% said it would motivate them to work harder. Sticking with the workplace, Ian Pearson, UK Futurologist, and Intel UK have created a report that proposes 5G will create an environment so productive that we no longer need our workforce to work a five-day week.
