As we approach 2025,the global technological landscape is rapidly changing, driven by innovations such as generative Artificial Intelligence (AI), quantum computing and advanced robotics. With this evolution,it is essential for business leaders to stay updated on the emerging trends that are shaping their sectors.The coming years promise to bring significant growth opportunities, efficiency and transformation
The continuous advancement in AI, quantum computing and human-machine interaction are the main drivers behind the list of the 10 technologies that IT leaders should closely monitor in 2025.Each of these innovations represents powerful tools to overcome challenges related to productivity, security and innovation
The 10 technologies that will transform the global economy
Based on reports from companies like Gartner, Deloitte, EY and Forrester, we highlight the 10 main trends that are expected to impact the technological landscape in 2025
The key to surviving this new industrial revolution is to lead it. This requires two key elements of agile business: awareness of disruptive technology and a plan to develop talent that can make the most of it
1. Generative Artificial Intelligence
Generative AI, capable of creating content and solutions autonomously, it will be one of the most powerful forces in 2025. Gartner predicts that this technology will help companies innovate quickly and automate complex tasks
2. Quantum Computing
According to Deloitte,quantum computing will move from research laboratories to practical applications, allowing to solve problems that traditional computers cannot, how complex optimizations in supply chains
3. Edge Computing
According to Gartner,edge computingEdge Computingwill become essential to reduce latency and increase the efficiency of applications and services. This technology allows for data processing closer to where it is generated, enabling real-time solutions, how autonomous vehicles and smart cities
4. Intelligent Automation with AI
The use of AI to automate processes goes beyond RPA. Forrester highlights the combination of process automation with AI to create fully autonomous operations that optimize efficiency and reduce costs
5. Multicloud Solutions
The multicloud strategy will continue to expand, allowing companies to combine different service providers to avoid dependency and increase resilience. Gartner indicates that multicloud will provide more flexibility and security for business operations
6. Sustainable Technologies
Sustainability will be an imperative for technological innovation. According to McKinsey, technology companies will focus on practices and products that reduce environmental impact, with renewable energy and data efficiency being priorities
7. Expanded Blockchain
Blockchain goes beyond cryptocurrencies for data security applications, smart contracts and supply chain tracking.As predicted by Deloitte,companies will adopt this technology to ensure transparency and reliability in digital transactions
8. Immersive Experience with Augmented and Virtual Reality
With the evolution of hardware and software, Forrester estimates a significant increase in the adoption of AR and VR technologies, transforming consumption experiences, training and remote collaboration
9. Advanced Cybersecurity with AI
With the increase in cyber threats, AI-driven cybersecurity solutions will be a necessity. Gartner highlights that AI will assist in real-time incident detection and response, increasing the capacity for defense against cyber counterattacks
10. Plataformas Low-Code/No-Code
The simplification of application development with low-code and no-code platforms will allow more people to create technological solutions without advanced technical knowledge.For EY,these platforms will democratize innovation and help companies respond quickly to changes
The workforce in 2025
These technologies can have enormous benefits for many companies,but will also create great challenges. The McKinsey report includes some suggestions for preparing for these challenges, emphasizing the anticipation of future needs through constant training.The nature of work will continue to change, and this will require strong education and retraining programs
The World Economic Forum also highlighted that in almost all sectors, the impact of technological changes is shortening the lifespan of existing employee skill sets. The talent for managing, shaping and leading the ongoing changes will be scarce, unless we take measures today to develop it.
Companies will need to place talent development and future workforce strategy front and center in their growth and can no longer be passive consumers of ready-made human capital. They require a new mindset to meet their talent needs
Emerging technologies, although they are promising for a brighter and more efficient future, come with their set of challenges and ethical dilemmas. Balancing innovation with responsibility will be the key to ensuring that these technologies benefit society as a whole without compromising fundamental values and rights
