Top 10 Strategic Technology Trends For 2013



Forbes magazine recently reported on the Gartner Research Corporation's Top 10 Strategic Technology Trends For 2013, which also includes ideas that have started to rumble already in 2012.

Smartphones - Today the flip phone just no longer cuts it. In 2013, mobile devices will pass PCs to be the most common web access tools, and by 2015 over 80% of all handsets in developed markets will be smartphones.

Cloud Computing - Clouds have become the center of our digital lives, storing photos, documents and other things too important to save in just one place. The automatic synchronization between devices has required data storage centers to increase and become more efficient. Companies at the forefront of the cloud computing industry, are Amazon, SAP and Google.

Internet - The world would not be where it is today without the Internet and its instant communication. The online giants include eBay, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google and Amazon.

Multimedia Networking - While cloud computing is fine for photos and documents, when it comes to running businesses and countries, physical servers in secure locations are the best way to maintain a safe haven for data. Here, well-known tech giants are Cisco Systems, Motorola Solutions and Qualcomm. 

Next Generation Internet - The Internet has proven to be an absolutely critical element to the advancement of technology as ideas, money and connections are shared now faster then ever before. Businesses can even exist almost entirely online, as reaching millions of interested investors and consumers has never been so accessible.
