The Digital Revolution

Abstract

Digital technology is changing society and industry, but how big is the change and how fast will it come? Can we speak of a digital revolution comparable to the industrial revolution? Does it make sense to speak of data as the new oil? Will av world with Internet of Things, Artificial Intelligence and Big Data be so different as to warrant the talk of a digital revolution? What are the important challenges facing us, and how do we make the most of the new technologies?
