CXO Insight Middle East - January 2021

As they say, it is tough to make predictions, especially about the future. 2020 was a year of challenges when the coronavirus swept the globe, prompting many to declare it as the worst year ever. In the wake of the pandemic, we can’t help but wonder what this year will bring for those in the technology industry. Here is what I believe will likely happen in the next 12 months. Although a large chunk of the workforce in the region is back to offices, thanks to the availability of vaccines, the remote work trend is likely to continue even after the pandemic. Depending on the industry and job context, employees might become common to work one or two days a week from home because of increased productivity. For IT leaders, this culture shift means they will have to invest in platforms and security tools that allow their organisations to work remotely.
