Understanding the impact of the connected revolution

White Paper | April 2014

With competitive pressures intensifying and the pace of innovation accelerating, recognising key trends, understanding their implications and, where appropriate, responding decisively is essential to remain successful.

Vodafone has created five insight papers which discuss many significant business and technology trends shaping enterprises today and into the future. We discuss their implications and make recommendations as to the steps businesses need to take.

• The new customer relationship in the digital age


• The rise of the borderless enterprise


• Understanding the impact of the connected revolution


• The changing role of the IT department in a cloud-based world


• The importance of mobility for tomorrow’s enterprise

This paper describes our thinking relating to understanding the impact of the connected revolution. If you are interested in topics such as the growth of the Internet of things and machine-to-machine (M2M), the opportunity it represents for businesses and the requirements for success, then you will find this of interest.
