Communication and networking technologies are an integral part of the digital transformation (DX) journey. And they have witnessed a phenomenal rate of growth in the last three decades. According to estimates, the global spending C on DX could be around USD 1.6 trillion in 2022 and it is expected to reach USD 3.4 trillion by the end of 2026.
The accelerated growth opportunities can be attributed to the rising demand for 24*7 connectivity and unified communication that includes voice, video, and data. These technologies have been instrumental in changing the lives of people and integrating the common people with the elite on the technology embracer pyramid.
More people are expected to reap the benefits that new technologies will render. While some of them are already in the adoption stage, others have just started to get heads to turn.
