Predicting the future is difficult and dangerous. Predicting the future in the computing industry is considerably more difficult and riskier due to rapid technological change and insurmountable barriers to innovation. Only a small minority of inventions are truly transformative. Some aren’t practical or cost-effective, while others are ahead of their time or haven’t found an audience. There are numerous examples of excellent technology that was never deployed because it was outperformed by others that arrived on time or performed better in the market. As a result, this infographic is merely an attempt to have a better understanding of where technology is headed.
As reported by Accenture, by 2022, financial market firms will be faced with perpetual change, both in the outside world and within their own operations.
