Innovating industries

In the banking industry, technologies are tearing down barriers and are opening doors for new financial service providers. In markets worldwide, banks are facing intensifying pressure. From the shift to digital transactions to customers’ rising expectations and continuing demand for a "human touch" at key moments. We are seeing traditional in-branch activities continue to decline. The inevitable transformation has started and we can help you make this transition successfully. 

Government – we are all affected by it, but what should it look like in the future and what will it do? Around the world citizens’ trust in government is falling. Rapid technological developments are making even the most advanced governments look flat-footed as people connect, exchange ideas and form new communities in radically different ways. It is becoming increasingly clear that the models of government we’ve relied upon for generations need radical rethinking. We have a bold new vision on how governments around the world should look, think and act. 

Growing and aging populations, greater prevalence of chronic diseases, the globally rising shortage of five million healthcare workers and the financial discrepancies of care are all putting pressure on the healthcare sector like never before. However, this is contrasted with exponential advances in innovative technological developments. Because of these digital innovations, today’s healthcare industry has tools at its disposal that it would not have dared to dream about, even just a few years ago. Let us solve your healthcare puzzle with our vast experience.

Skills gaps across all industries are poised to grow in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Rapid advances in artificial intelligence (AI), robotics and other emerging technologies are happening in ever shorter cycles, changing the very nature of the jobs that need to be done - and the skills needed to do them - faster than ever before. There is astrong demand for technical skills like programming and app development, along with skills that computers can’t easily master such as creative thinking, problem-solving and negotiating. We can fill your skills gap temporarily or train your workforce and make them future proof.

As with every other industry, insurance is becoming more technologically advanced (and some may say, disrupted) by the day. Though the transformation is much too slow. There are several reasons for this, but one that may or may not surprise you is that insurers are struggling to attract and retain top-talent despite insurance being a multi-trillion dollar, high-growth industry. Companies are struggling to modernize complicated legacy systems and develop new ways of working (with a strong focus on the customer) without sacrificing the old approaches that got them where they are today. It’s up to established insurance heavy-hitters to ensure they don’t get left behind. We can develop digital-first infrastructures that incorporate the latest technologies from the outset and make you lead your sector.

Despite the impact of digital influence continually increasing, the ability of retailers to influence the purchase journey is decreasing. Digital platforms such as Facebook and Google are already hosting real-time interactions with customers for several hours each day. As a result, they are shaping and redefining the customer’s definition of a great experience through constant real time connection. Retailers should embrace the native capabilities of their digital touchpoints and integrate with platforms where their customers are already interacting at scale rather than trying to build such platforms themselves. We help you connnect to the right platform, create your own online footprint and develop that much wanted digital relationship with your customers.

All signs indicate that the world is headed toward electric transportation as the standard for local transit. It is the preferred method in terms of sustainability. But with the supporting technology evolving at breakneck speed, companies are scrambling to identify the right strategy to adopt. Within cities, we can expect to see substantial changes in the near future with the emergence of electric vehicles and drones coming into the equation. In parallel with that development, traffic control centers will leverage new digital solutions to have real-time knowledge of any issues occurring in urban (air) mobility. Planning a sustianable and resilient city that delivers effective and equitable urban (air) mobility solutions is one of the most pressing problems for cities throughout the world, but we help you manage this task.
