Discover the highlights from the world of finance, innovation and sustainability.
Following Apple's recent launch of the first AI-enabled iPhone, our mobile devices are set to undergo a major transformation over the next five years. With flexible materials, artificial intelligence, augmented reality, and 6G connectivity, what is in store?
Increasingly digital and sustainable. Companies today are navigating a dual transformation to enhance their competitiveness while integrating sustainability into their activities. Data forecasts point to a positive impact on global economic growth.
Artificial intelligence algorithms are already proving to be a very useful tool for preventing tumors. The applications of AI already in use include early detection, rapid diagnosis, and risk prediction.
We are immersed in an unprecedented labor revolution. Most jobs of the future do not exist today. This raises important questions: What will offices be like by 2030? Will remote work continue?
The big bet on the artificial intelligence (AI) revolution often overshadows another key technology trend for digital transformation: cybersecurity. Besides protecting digital assets, experts stress the need to build an organizational culture that is risk-aware and prepared to respond to growing threats.
This chapter of 'Blink' is dedicated to blockchain, a technology that has expanded from being focused solely on cryptocurrencies to other areas such as digital identities, decentralized finance, and supply chain traceability.
In just a few years, blockchain technology has expanded beyond cryptocurrencies to become a tool used in many other areas, such as asset tokenization and digital identity. The future of blockchain lies in its interoperability with the centralized world, which, thanks to institutional liquidity, can enhance its speed and efficiency.
With the addition of USDC to its cryptocurrency range, BBVA in Switzerland is set to revolutionize and develop new growth potential for its customers, expanding its pioneering investment portfolio as a traditional bank and cryptobank.
Tokenization makes it possible to convert all the sensitive information of a real asset into a blockchain token, which becomes the digital representation of that asset. Experts predict that in under ten years, asset tokenization will exceed USD 16 trillion and account for 10% of global GDP.
We have integrated into our operating system the Gas Station, an innovative digital service created by Avaloq and Crypto Finance that will allow our customers to trade digital assets 24/7 (Bitcoin and Ether) without having to worry about the mining/gas expenses associated with the blockchain.
Chalkboards, paper textbooks and written exams are making way for EdTech, a revolutionary method aimed at transforming education systems from top to bottom.
Our society is undergoing structural behavioral changes, and much of this is due to the Internet of Things.
The future of the Internet is around the corner. As opposed to the creation of tech oligopolies and the mass data collection of Web 2.0, everything seems to suggest we are on the horizon of a new, less global phase, one with greater public regulation and different ways of resisting any form of governance.
The market size for semiconductors, those essential small components in the automotive, computer and data storage industries, is growing steadily. Experts estimate that the sector will exceed 1 trillion dollars by 2030. The investment is in Asia.
Other virtual reality goggles and artificial intelligence without limits. It may seem that 2024 will focus on these two technology trends, but it is almost certain that neither techno-optimists nor techno-skeptics will get it completely right.
