Evolution of tomorrow’s digital remote worker

Session Abstract:

By next year, U.S. workers who work partially or fully remotely will represent 72% of the total workforce and today, companies are projected to spend over $185B in video conferencing, team collaboration and unified communication tools serving the digital workspace. The market is big and growing, and emerging is a next generation IoT driven virtual, digital office. The evolution of 5G enhances the ability to support this mobile workforce. But, enabling the user with a manageable and truly secure experience will require advanced solutions delivered across host of IoT products. This session demonstrates a way to re-create the sense of place and community found in a traditional office and affords the employee engagement that is missing from today’s e-meeting video tools. Customized offices contain an application console with all your favorite applications including full video conferencing and screen sharing. These virtual offices are always ‘on’, leveraging IoT to build collaboration spaces, group training rooms, meeting rooms, and social networking venues. These emerging technologies truly deliver on the promise and value of IoT in this world of digital transformation.
