ADM - Where Business and ICT meet

Mobility

Background

A mobile mindset

Technological predictions usually make two mistakes: 

  • they overestimate the speed of breakthrough of the technology
  • they greatly underestimate its impact

This goes for mobile technology too, where powerful, light and user-friendly tablet and smartphones have become the tipping point for the adoption of mobile computing. In business life we see mobile devices being used for more than just the standard e-mail, calendar and contacts. Microsoft preached anytime, anywhere computing and Google was the first company to announce that ‘mobile first’ would be their new mantra. This will be the mind-shift that we can expect from other professionals. Is your company ready to do the same?
