The blending or integration of voice, video, and data into a single but flexible global communications network. In an article entitled, The Impact of Technology Convergence [INFOGRAPHIC] author Bill Ward (2014) states, “Apple is the master of consumer driven technology convergence. They were the first to release a cell phone with a multi-touch interface that combined multiple technologies and functions to eliminate the need to carry many separate single-function devices. It set the wave in motion for many to follow and further innovate. This, however, is just one well-known example of converging technologies with capabilities that impact so many on personal and professional levels.” At a recent ASUG Conference in Orlando, Florida 150 respondents were surveyed and found that:• 90% of respondents think that technology convergence will change the way they do business, and within that, 59% think it will drive innovation • The #1 technology convergence capability for organizations is the ability to Embed technology in devices and products • 29% of the organizations agree that “increased revenue” is the key business driver to implement a holistic solution across mobile, social, cloud and big data/analytics The above survey results provide insight into their perception of the present and future of technology convergence and what it means to their businesses.
