Business

However big their ambitions, the typical entrepreneur never seems to think big enough when it comes to understanding new 21st Century technologies built to help their organizations grow and prosper.




As a new business you have to stay up to date with what new innovations are propelling the competition forward and furthering the industry. What follows is a brief introduction into a handful of exciting new concepts and technologies that can keep your company thriving well into the future.

Desktop as a Service

Desktop-as-a-Service merges the workstation experience with cloud computing. The service allows you to instantly access your company data and resources from any location. At present, your employees probably call up company records and documents stored on PC hard drives or your network server. Desktop-as-a-Service empowers entrepreneurs by letting key people log in from any location, using the device they prefer. The method works by creating networks of virtual desktops hosted on the cloud and safeguarded by security experts. Desktop-as-a-Service enhances productivity, and enables unprecedented opportunities for sharing and collaboration.

Mobile as a Growth Engine

Mobile technology is emerging as a significant growth engine for small and medium-sized enterprises. The most aggressive adopters of it are enjoying twice the revenue growth of their closest peers. Mobile technology is also a catalyst for driving global job growth. Part of the reason is that venture capital investments in mobile technologies are increasing every year. During the previous four quarters, mobile content and apps have earned more than 500 billion dollars in global revenue for their developers and owners and every organization, regardless of size, can create an internal department dedicated to the development of mobile apps.

Today, small business uses mobile technology to remain connected with their consumers and prospects while streamlining their operations. Organizations that turn to mobile technology sooner are growing revenue faster and are creating more jobs than their industry counterparts. Small businesses are encouraged to create their own apps and software for more customized technology. Firms like Cogitech Solutions in Utah work with businesses of all sizes to design and maintain new software specific to the company’s industry. It’s a great way to give yourself a boost over competitions and tailor make your work.

Digital Currency

Internet-based money (cryptocurrencies) allows for the instantaneous completion of retail or wholesale transactions without the need for intervening banks or credit card processing firms. Digital money is used by people every day to buy physical goods and services online. Every one of these transactions takes place without the need for credit approval, and there are never any processing fees or chargebacks. Digital currencies make global commerce easy for small businesses that otherwise have difficulty finding merchant accounts that work with foreign credit cards. It’s a digital innovation you can’t afford to ignore.

Keeping a thriving business ahead of the competition in the 21st Century is not by any means easy. If you're currently able to, then you’ve already achieved more than the average business owner. If you are not there yet, or if you fear you and your staff are slipping a bit behind, then investing the time to better understand the above tools and technologies will pay off with meaningful dividends going forward.
