Many regional business owners are giving serious consideration to the trends for medium and small enterprises in 2017 and beyond. Inciden-tally I have had to speak on this topic recently and so I thought it fitting to share with you some of the latest trends and developments that could impact SMEs.
My first thoughts on the topic made me reflect on the fact that the lines between the digital and physical world continue to blur creating new opportunities for digital businesses. As we look around there has to be the recognition that some element of smartness is being embedded in everything. The future is therefore digital and as such every business is transforming into a tech-enabled business.
