Voices | We are living in the age of a revolution; industry 4.0 presents a historic opportunity for South African business to thrive, writes Jonas Bogoshi

Technology has moved beyond being a sector, rather it is a platform which is so seamlessly embedded in every aspect of our everyday lives that we hardly notice the rapid adoption of advanced technologies happening all around us.

While we must acknowledge the challenges we face as a country – a legacy of corruption, a shrinking economy and an education deficit, to name a few – we must also recognise technology as a ubiquitous equaliser connecting people in new and revolutionary ways. 5G promises to be everything to everyone, it unlocks the promises of the digital revolution across sectors and its business applications are endless.

With favourable regulation and an appetite for innovation, there is nothing holding us back from piloting the smart cities of tomorrow, today. Traditional skills hang in the balance; technology advances in healthcare may eventually mean that you consult your general practitioner through a digital channel rather than face-to-face, or your lawyer provides you with a predictive and cheaper solution.
