Issue 4 of Verdict Magazine is out now, covering the latest and greatest developments in technology.
There is no clear end to this pandemic, and with each day new information emerges that subtly changes our perception of how the future is going to play out. What is clear is that things are not going to remain the same; the world is changed, and the challenge for businesses now is to discern new opportunities from dwindling markets, and capitalise most effectively.
But this change is not static – politics, social movements and technologies are all playing a role in its evolution, and the true impact of events happening now are unlikely to be fully realised for some time. In other words, predicting what is going to happen next is incredibly difficult, and businesses are faced with making decisions in a world with truly limited visibility.
In issue 4, the latest issue of Verdict Magazine, we tap into some of the most important and impactful elements of this changing world, exploring what they mean for technology and how key businesses are responding to them.
