Review of the article: 12 Ways COVID-19 Will Change the Tech Industry by John Miley, Senior Associate Editor. Miley covers technology, telecom, and education for The Kiplinger Letter.
In Miley’s words ‘… a collection of some significant tech shifts that bear watching.’
Miley lists these 12 ways that the tech industry will change and details his reasons.
- Digitization for Even the Last Holdouts
- More Hardware Sales (and Furniture, Too)
- A Setback for 5G
- Smartphones Will Tread Water
- Telehealth to Take Off
- Biometrics Will Go Touchless
- Privacy Online? A Whole Lot Less
- Virtual Reality Gets to Shine
- Robotics Will Need Innovation to Advance
- Drone Delivery Gets a Lift
- A Greater Effort to Undo the Digital Divide
- Remote Work Demands Will Spur Innovation
I do not agree with all of Miley’s discussion such as slowdown in 5G, but overall, the points he makes are great trends to watch. Right?
