Featured Research
Electric Vehicles

Governments and environmentalists alike continue to push, rightfully so, to create cleaner methods of transport. But can electric vehicles fill that requirement? How can consumers be persuaded to switch? And is the automotive supply chain actually ready for this change?

5G

How do you make a return on the large investments into mobile infrastructure required for 5G? How do you meet consumers requirements for a better service whilst being sensitive to price changes? And how do vendors present their value proposition to gaining a worthwhile share of the market?

Digital Health

As consumer and medical industries merge to provide a wealth of health data, challenges emerge. How do we meet the differing needs of patients, healthcare providers, caregivers, and administrators? How do we address interoperability issues? How do we win when it comes to digital health?

Covid 19

Covid-19 is the largest global disrupter we've seen in generations. In times of uncertainty comes opportunity, which means winners and losers. What will it mean for your company? How are your users and consumers changing their behavior? And just what will the post-coronavirus market landscape look like?
