Grading Our 2023 Enterprise Technology Predictions
SiliconANGLE , Saturday, December 30,2023
Predictions about the future of enterprise tech are streaming to our inboxes, literally by the thousands. Most are thoughtful and we will review those prior to publishing our 2024 predictions later in January.
As is our tradition, we try to make our own predictions more challenging by citing forecasts that are measurable and have either a numeric tied to them or a binary outcome. Our belief is if we make a prediction, you should be able to look back a year later and say with some degree of certainty whether the prediction came true or not - with some empirical evidence to back that up.
In this Breaking Analysis, we grade the 2023 predictions we made with Enterprise Technology Research's Erik Bradley. We look back at what we said in January about the macro information technology spending environment, cost optimization, security, generative AI, cloud, blockchain, data platforms, automation and tech events.
First, here's a quick scan of our 2023 predictions:
