Our industry is more diverse than its ever been. The IHS Markit Digital Signage Industry Market Tracker presents separate data in eightvertical markets, and many of these verticals are themselves very diverse. Retail extends from corner shops to Harrods to large supermarket chains. Hospitality spans everything from fast food outlets to Michelin-starred restaurants. Each vertical and related sub-vertical has very specific requirements for its digital signage hardware and software. To meet these needs, the industry needs to move out of its silos and recognise the need to work together not only to deliver for ones existing customers, but also to open markets that currently dont use digital signage at all.

There are core requirements that span every market. Signage needs to be secure, stable, easy to update and affordable. That means using a relatively standardised hardware platform across many segments to deliver economic performance and reliability. But the platform also needs to be flexible, allowing businesses to respond quickly to new challenges. If there is one lesson from coronavirus, we learned just how quickly industry-altering challenges can emerge, causing quick and far-reaching changes across markets. The flexibility to respond to such changes is bolstered by a plethora of CMS and digital signage software solutions tightly integrated within the platform.

Our industry needs to adopt an ecosystem-driven way of thinking, similar to what has proven so successful in consumer electronics. This approach is based on open APIs. BrightSign has implemented this on BSN.cloud, allowing partners small and large to build solutions addressing the segments and niches that they have identified, creating for some a powerful new route to market. For customers, this has greatly expanded their choices. They can select their preferred CMS in a drop-down menu and provision the BrightSign player or fleet of players for the chosen CMS with a few clicks of the mouse a level of integration unique in its depth and breadth. This newly born BSN.cloud ecosystem has already been embraced by more than twenty of the industrys leading CMS and digital signage solutions providers.

In five years, the IHS Markit industry survey might present data on 16 or more segments: some of which likely havent yet emerged. To encourage this growth and manage this diversity, we need to be an industry that gives its customers a real choice amongst the multiple solutions that they can now access, and we need to be an industry that encourages innovation. We need to provide broad market access to our entrepreneurial software providers, for they will be the ones to pioneer adoption in verticals that havent noticed us yet and that we havent spotted either.

other parts of the program would be dedicated towards preserving endangered marine species and their ecosystems. a variety of known living organisms face extinction due to the simple inability to adapt to the new climatic conditions in their living environment, therefore their lives are highly endangered. environmental preservation centers would be independent and would focus on animals and vegetal species as the main priority while allowing a program mixture with research investigation. although we are encapsulating now to resolve the issues that humans have created, one day we will be decapsulating, then we can eliminate the barriers between all living species.

AI in BFSI Ecosystem Market Research Report 2020: Key Players, Applications, Drivers, Trends and Forecast to 2026 - WaterCloud News

The publication includes cross-sector examples of what is being done across the US and the barriers faced in scaling solutions.

Regenerative practices have the potential to deliver wide-ranging benefits including the restoration of soil health, water quality and biodiversity; and equitable distribution of value and of risk throughout agricultural supply chains but progress in the US agriculture sector is fragmented, noted the publication.

An urgent shift from conventional to regenerative systems is needed, according to the report. The document evaluates the role that various actors from policy makers and brands to investors and non-profits have in driving change.

The report also outlines a new, seven-point roadmap on how agriculture can shift from extractive to regenerative practices, recognizing that the food industry and other sectors continue to face severe disruption from the COVID-19 crisis.

When asked how regenerative agricultural practices could deliver robust animal feed and livestock production in the future, Lesley Mitchell, associate director, sustainable nutrition, Forum for the Future, told FeedNavigator:

Feed is a major component of both the cost and climate impacts of animal production accounting for almost half of all emissions overall, rising to three quarters in the case of poultry production. So, systems of feed production that can act as a carbon sink, actively enabling carbon to be returned to soils, have huge potential for boosting sustainability of both feed and livestock farming.

Regenerative systems are also likely to support much more diverse production and enable innovation in feed crops. Where major feed staples such as row crops are sown, cover crops and other regenerative practices can keep the nutrients in the soil, enabling resilient productivity.

Regenerative practices build soil health and thus increase resilience of the farming systems to changing weather patterns, she said.

Climate trajectories show that going beyond 1.5 degrees of global warming is likely to bring major losses in crop nutrients, productivity, and increasing extreme weather events. We have a short window of time to reconfigure how we produce feed, and a huge untapped opportunity to benefit from adopting regenerative practices. In a context where it is estimated the US loses nearly a billion tons of soil a year, the urgency to act could not be starker.

Of course, any shift must be financially viable, acknowledged Mitchell.

Three areas where regenerative practices could improve production include:

Mitchell said feed needs to be seen in the context of a regenerative food system as part of a system that delivers sustainable nutrition that is good for people and the planet.

With a huge global spotlight on livestock productions environmental impacts, and increasing acceptance of meat and dairy substitutes, the way feed is produced will have an increasingly visible role as part of design of sustainable livestock systems.

Stakeholders across the food and feed system have an interest in these regenerative solutions, and the need for collaborative effort has never been clearer: supporting transition to innovative farming practices, new routes to market, and advocating for an enabling policy and financial environment, she added.

This research focused on the US, and encompassed US and international actors influencing agriculture from a diverse range of perspectives commodity companies, food manufacturers and retailers, major crop producers and philanthropists and those in the financial sector alongside grassroots farmers and non-profits.

"While some challenges will be context specific, the core levers for change we identified are likely to be highly adaptable to other regions: from the need for investment in transition and knowledge building, robust data and metrics, an investment focus that looks to the value of carbon and ecosystem services, new market models, and most importantly increasing the influence of farmers in decision-making," explainedMitchell.

On a global level, she said, the attention to regenerative agriculture is part of a shift in focus toward nature-based solutions.

This is growing rapidly, both as a policy focus in UN climate talks, as part of Food System Dialogues, and toward the major global Food Systems Summit in 2021.

In terms of real evidence of a momentum behind regenerative agriculture in the US, she said a range of players across diverse sectors contributed to Growing our Future including major international food and beverage manufacturers, commodity suppliers, feed producers, farmers, investors, philanthropists and non-profits.

Regenerative agriculture is a priority focus for major investment and innovation initiatives such as Foodshot, supported by the Rockefeller Foundation and Rabobank Corporate Investments Innovation Fund, while Indigo Agriculture and others are incentivizing investment in farming practices that deliver carbon sequestration as a means of getting to net zero carbon emissions.

Major companies like General Mills, Danone, Cargill are actively trialing and introducing regenerative practices in their supply chains, with companies such a McDonalds focusing on both regenerative farming and feed sustainability.

The World Business Council for Sustainable Development and Sustainable Agriculture Initiative are promoting collaborative efforts, and diverse farmers groups are closely engaged in this shift.

However, the challenge to date has been the fragmentation of all these efforts, stressed Mitchell.

A key aim of Forum for the Futures work, therefore, was to bring these diverse perspectives together and develop shared goals for a regenerative agriculture system that anyone could get behind and identify what their organizations could do to enable the shift to regenerative production, she said.

But we shouldnt sugar coat the immense challenge we face in this shift. Growing our Future identified 16 key barriers, from fiscal measures such as crop insurance, to markets built to enable monocultures, to an absence of accounting for environmental impacts and benefits. If we are to seize this opportunity to pull those levers of change, we will need to act together now.

The Institute of Chartered Secretaries of Bangladesh (ICSB) organized a Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programme on "COVID-19 and its impact on the National Economy on May 30, 2020 on virtual platform.

Mohammad Sanaullah FCS, Immediate Past President and Chairman, Professional Development Committee of the Institute chaired the Session. Dr. M Masrur Reaz, Chairman of Policy Exchange (Former Senior Economist World Bank Group -IFC) presented the Keynote Paper on the subject.

Muzaffar Ahmed FCS, President of the Institute and Mohammad Bul Hassan FCS, Senior Vice President of the Institute were the discussants.

The keynote paper said that the world may lose a total of 195 million jobs (according to ILO) due to the COVID-19 effect. The growth rate of Bangladesh may range between 2 to 3 percent in 2020 and fiscal deficit is projected to be at 7.7%. He also mentioned that for each $1 million in foregone domestic demand in service sector, Bangladesh may lose 125 jobs as per World Bank (WB) report. It is estimated that the poverty will be doubled to 40%. Half of the SMEs had to completely halt their business operations during COVID lockdown. Besides, about half of the SMEs (46%) may need to lay off more than 50% of their staff in a bid to cut costs. He also mentioned that 2700 accessories/backward linkage, 100K transport, one third of general insurance premium which is linked with RMG eco-system will be affected. Lower interest rate and bank profitability will adversely impact the depositors as well as capital market. He also discussed in detail about the winds of change in corporate practices. In taking part discussion, Muzaffar Ahmed opined that the economy will be reshaped due to the COVID-19 effect. The order of corporate practices will change in post COVID period.

Accordingly, the professionals need to equip themselves to the market demand with proper knowledge and skills. He said that ICSB members will be benefited from such presentations made by Mr. Reaz with facts and figures. Most of the sectors have to reduce cost of the business to sustain post COVID new-normal situation. He also put emphasize on skilling and re-skilling of members in the upcoming days in order to sustain in the market. In taking part discussion Mr. Mohammad Bul Hassan thanked key note speaker for his elaborated presentation which will definitely help professionals to identify current and upcoming challenges that corporate sector and economy is going to face. The COVID-19, however, shows us the long standing inequality in health care system and basic services, financial products, digital economy as well as social securities of informal workers where we can work to improve. Another is communication through digital platform and work from home became as reality and in addition, people became technology friendly due to lockdown.

Mohammad Sanaullah mentioned that unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic has caused destruction to global trade, business and education. The economic consequence is tough to handle as overall global supply chain has been disrupted. He has given more emphasized to develop members of the Institute to work under digital system. To make the corporate management more vibrant Chartered Secretaries should be acquainted adequate knowledge to perform secretarial jobs / management of company meetings like board, Committee and general meetings under digital platform. He also stated that Govt. has huge room for development of the countrys overall health care system. For doing so, effective and quality management of health sector is crucial along with the size of the health care budget. We hope government will support to develop the health and related infrastructure to tackle this pandemic. Perhaps, the lock down is not the ultimate solution for unlimited time for a country like Bangladesh. The virtual program ended with an interactive question and answer session where the Chairman, Keynote speaker and discussants answered various questions of the participants. Md. Nazrul Islam Chowdhury ACS, Member Secretary of Professional Development Sub Committee delivered vote of thanks on behalf of the Institute.

ICSB event on Covid19 and its impact - The Financial Express

Sushma Ramachandran

Senior Financial Journalist

Every crisis has its silver lining. In Indias case, the Covid pandemic is likely to have several positive outcomes. One will be the upgrading of the creaky infrastructure in healthcare that has for decades lagged behind not just developed countries, but also other emerging economies. The second is the evolution of policies that could benefit the previously invisible migrant workers who fortunately are suddenly at the forefront of our consciousness. And the last is probably going to be a much greater sensitivity and awareness about the insidious entry of Chinese investors into large segments of the economy, especially the sunrise sectors. And this, in turn, could ensure that some barriers are raised to make sure that the Indian ecosystem is given adequate protection.

A first step was taken when the government issued a notification ensuring that foreign direct investment from China will not be allowed through the automatic route and will need specific approvals. Judging by media reports, a similar roadblock may be placed for foreign portfolio investments to ensure that Chinese entities do not go for this option to avoid seeking government approvals. Currently, the share prices of many corporates have fallen and there could potentially be attempts to take over some institutions. The question, of course, is whether such safeguards are really needed or is it merely a case of conspiracy theorists working overtime without any basis. It could be that there is an ultra sensitivity to China due to the animosity for that country engendered by the Covid-19 virus that has created havoc worldwide. To some extent, this is probably true.

At the same time, there are areas of concern such as the recent hike in investment from 0.8 to 1.01 per cent stake by the Peoples Bank of China in HDFC, the promoter of HDFC Bank. By itself, this should not have warranted much comment. But it did ring alarm bells, given the situation all over the world where Chinese companies have been investing aggressively in recent times.

To get a better sense of the scenario, one needs to review the entire gamut of Chinas investments in India and related issues. The first relates to inter-linkages with China in many sectors which created serious supply chain problems in the early days of the pandemic. The supply crisis was even more acute in nations that have closer supply chain ties with that country. A bit of decoupling is thus inevitable and essential to prevent economic distress in future for the Indian industry.

Secondly, fears have been rising about the increasing appetite of Chinese investors for acquiring controlling stakes in companies all over the world. So, Indias decision to put curbs on FDI flows from China is in line with the global trends. Spain, Germany, Italy, Australia and Japan are among the countries that have already clamped down on such investments, having clearly recognised that there is a potential threat.

As for Chinas presence here, data with industry chamber CII shows that it has invested $27 billion into this country over the past 13 years covering a wide range of industries, from auto components to consumer electronics. It is estimated that about 800 Chinese companies are registered here, though much less actually have manufacturing facilities. It is in the start-up sector, however, that China has the biggest role, with venture capital from that country supporting some of the most well-known Indian unicorns, including Paytm, Ola, Big Basket, Byjus and Swiggy, to name a few.

In this context, a recent study on Chinese investments in India by the think tank, Gateway House, is illuminating. It says 18 out of Indias 30 unicorns are funded by Chinese internet giants like Alibaba, Tencent, Fuson and Didi Chuxing. The rapid rise of Chinese investments in the Indian start-up space is corroborated by Tracxn, a global start-up tracking agency which estimates that these grew from $668 million in 2016 to $5.6 billion in 2018. This is a remarkable spurt over just a two-year period.

The Gateway House study also points out that the actual quantum of foreign direct investment by China is not very high, but is in high-tech areas that could have a serious impact on issues such as data control and privacy. Given that most large Chinese companies have their own ecosystems such as online markets and payment gateways, it argues that they could advise the start-up venture to use the pre-existing Chinese solutions for its tech requirements. This, in turn, could lead to loss of control over data and create privacy issues for Indians using these apps.

In other words, the threat posed by China to the Indian economy is not just a figment of imagination. It does not mean that existing trade and economic ties should be pared down. But it does mean that a more nuanced and watchful approach needs to be taken for both Chinese investments and trade. On the FDI side, it is not one of the bigger players as the total investment is reported to have touched $8 billion. However, it has entered into strategic and sensitive areas like artificial intelligence and the internet of things. Investments are also being made through companies based in Singapore, which technically are not considered Chinese investments. It is, thus, imperative to keep a close eye on such indirect inflows.

Similarly, bilateral trade needs to be placed under greater scrutiny. Several anti-dumping cases have already been lodged with the World Trade Organisation (WTO), though more aggressive measures need to be taken as overly cheap products are being supplied in many sectors. Quality issues also need to be red-flagged, given the recent controversy over PPE kits supplied to many countries as well as the reported ineffectiveness of antibody tests sent to this country.

Thus, it is clear that the role of China in the Indian ecosystem needs to be monitored on a regular basis. Like with any other country, India needs to ensure that the bilateral relationship is not skewed in favour of the other side. A little more caution is the need of the hour.

Need to monitor Chinas role in Indian ecosystem - The Tribune India

On May 11, Sharp USA had a webinar on 8K titled Beyond 4K: Exploring Sharp's 8K Ecosystem. Since Sharp has said it will not be a US television supplier, the webinar focused on professional use of 8K technology. Presenters were Cliff Quiroga, VP New Business Development, and Saundra Merollo, Senior Sales Engineer, with Manny Cuza, Regional Account Manager - Pro AV, acting as host and moderator.

Sharp makes 8K camcorders and 8K displays, but not the intermediate products needed to form a complete ecosystem. These products are supplied by Sharps Star Partners, not by Sharp itself.

Sharps 8C-B60A 8K Camcorder. (Credit: Sharp)

Sharp currently sells one 8K camera and has announced a second. The first, the Sharp 8C-B60A, was announced in November 2017 and is currently available in Japan or by special order in the US. It was priced at 8,800,000 without the PL-mount lens, about $77,000 at the 2017 exchange rate. This camera will do 8K (76804320, actually UHD-2) at a 60p frame rate with 4:2:2 compression and 10 bits. Not surprisingly, since the camera was developed with NHK, the native OETF (gamma) curve is HLG, not PQ. The camera uses the Grass Valley HQX Codec and will record 40 minutes of video content using a 2T SSD. According to Quiroga, this camera was developed specifically so NHK could broadcast the 2020 (now 2021) Olympics in 8K.

The second camera was first discussed at CES 2019 but is not yet available. According to Quiroga, it will be available in Japan in Q3 2020 and in the US in Q4. The price will be less than $4000. Complete data is not available on the camera but Quiroga gave the above table, which is more information on the camera than Ive seen other places. The camera will record 8K (7680 x 4320) or true 4K (4096 x 2160) at 30fps. It will also record UHD or 1080p at 60fps. In one way, the 30fps limit for 8K is surprising: Sharp gives a convincing demo (if you need convincing) on its 8K TV website that 30fps is not enough for 8K content. In another sense, the 30fps limit is not surprising: the high-speed electronics to do 8K 60fps or, heaven forbid, 8K 120fps can hardly be built into a $4000 camera, at least not today. The camera takes a Micro Four Thirds lens, not included in the $4000, but these lenses are available from a variety of vendors, including Panasonic, Olympus and Sigma.

Sharp 8M-B80AX1U 8K, HDR, WCG and HFR professional display. (Credit: Sharp)

These two cameras are at one end of the 8K ecosystem chain and 8K displays are at the other end. They discussed two professional 8K displays from Sharp in the webinar, the 80 8M-B80AX1U and the 70 8M-B70AU. Sharp also makes a smaller 8K display for the consumer market, the 60 Aquos 8T-C60AX1X, but that was not discussed. To a certain extent, this failure to build a 60 professional 8K display emphasizes that 8K is really only for big screens where viewers are close to the screen and makes little sense in displays as small as 60.

As Ken Werner discussed in a Display Daily almost a year ago, 8K is more than just more pixels. To make sense, it must be High Dynamic Range (HDR), Wide Color Gamut (WCG) and, preferably, High Frame Rate (HFR). The 80 display is all three of these with 4000 nits peak brightness, Rec. 2020 colorimetry and 120Hz frame rate. According to Sharp, these displays both have one thing that will be key for practical use of 8K displays: Super high-quality [FHD and 4K to] 8K upscaling. These displays arent particularly new. For example, the 70 version won a number of Best in Show awards in 2018.

Between the camera and the display, Sharp and its partners have demonstrated end-to-end 8K signal chains with various configurations for an assortment of markets. For example, the image above shows the configuration used for live, 8K streaming of the Roland-Garros French Tennis Open in May and June, 2019.

8K live streaming from drone to check infrastructure (Credit: Sharp)

Sharp and its partners were the first to broadcast 8K live streaming from a drone in November 2019. The drone carried one of the soon-to-be-released B30 8K cameras, so the streaming must have been done at 30fps. Presumably, this camera was used due to the weight restrictions of the drone would not allow it to carry the larger 8C-B60A 8K camcorder. The signal was streamed using local 5G technology, which presumably means 5G mmWave point-to-point technology that does not access the 5G cellular network. While this demo was discussed at CES 2020 in terms of infrastructure inspection, as shown in the image, what the demo actually did was stream live 8K images of a thoroughbred race horse training sessions to horses owners around the world.

In many ways, 8K is not really a consumer distribution format, partly because of its cost, partly because of the bandwidth required and partly because a consumer, even one with an 8K display, cant really see the difference between 4K and 8K in most cases. One thing acquisition with 8K cameras does allow is pan, scan and digital zoom to full-resolution FHD or UHD images without adjusting the camera position or the zoom of the lens. In the race horse training example, multiple horses were running together. One owner in Ireland could focus on his horse while another owner in Argentina could focus on a different horse and they would both still see high resolution images.

Another example given in the webinar was using one 8K camera on a newscast set. The 8K image would include both of the newscasters on the set. The 8K image could then be decimated to FHD or 4K to give the whole set, or a full resolution image of either newscaster could be generated. Thus, one 8K camera would replace three FHD or 4K cameras, and their operators. If desired, a digital zoom from the whole set onto just one of the newscasters could be done electronically, without the camera operator needing to do anything.

An infrastructure inspection topic discussed at CES was the inspection of sewers by a single 8K camera mounted on a robot that could crawl through the sewer. If the inspector saw anything suspicious, he could digitally zoom in on the potential problem and still get a very high-resolution image, eliminating the need for a pan and tilt mechanism on the robot or a zoom lens on the camera.

Other professional applications suggested by Quiroga and Merollo include digital signage, where viewers can approach the display closely; sports arenas, including VIP suites; telemedicine, including both surgery and education; and museums where people could see close up images and the undersides of artifacts that are too valuable for people to handle. While 8K resolution as a consumer distribution format faces a cloudy future, 8K acquisition and streaming has professional applications, including acquisition of consumer content to be streamed for broadcast at lower resolution, that pretty much guarantee its success.

Sharp and the 8K Ecosystem - Display Daily

Chinese tech giant Huawei has established an alliance with a handful of automakers and ride-hailing service providers to build a 5G-enabled automobile ecosystem in a move to accelerate the uptake of 5G technology in smart cars, according to a company statement.

The move is yet another sign of Huaweis determination to get into the self-driving car business at the same time as Washington has tried to isolate the company by limiting the use of its equipment in 5G networks due to security concerns and encouraging other countries to follow suit.

As part of the 5G-enabled automobile ecosystem, Huawei will provide members, including FAW Group, BYD, T3 Mobility and other carmakers, with technologies which they can use to test their 5G-enabled vehicles, the statement said.

With advantages in transmission speed, reliability and latency, 5G technology is considered essential for enhancing connected vehicles self-driving and entertainment capabilities.

In 2019, Huawei launched its first 5G communications hardware, named the MH5000 module, which the company claimed would make intelligent car transportation a reality and aid its plans to commercialize 5G network technology for the automotive sector.

Huawei is also building an open intelligent-driving platform to study app interface, car controlling systems, smart cockpits and the internet of vehicles.

Digital technologies have changed the banking landscape. In order to remain competitive, financial institutions are turning to 'banking ecosystems'.

These, according to consulting firms such as Accenture and Deloitte, these multiply customer interactions to transform them into hyper-relevant and personalised experiences.

According to Accenture, for example,88% of banks believethat ecosystems will be an important way to interact with customers in the future, while89% see customer-facing ecosystems as the main driver of future value.

Banks that offer these integrated, contextualised experiences go beyond traditional financial needs and meet broader customer needs. They support their customers, becoming hyper relevant in their customers everyday life, statesAccenture, for example.

In a recent article in FinTech magazine, we explored the development of banking ecosystems, the technology driving them and best practice for thriving in such an environment.

You can read the full article here. However, here we take a closer look at the key drivers that are influencing banking ecosystem development.

Customer experience is now a priority for all financial services institutions. As well as driving product innovation, it is also influencing the development of complex ecosystems. Microsoft, for example, in our article suggests that millennials are now decidedly more entrepreneurial in mindset than any previous generation".

The result of this, it states, is that they want to be in control of their own finances and are far more willing to embrace a self service model.

Customers too are now seeking a more bespoke, personalised experience. This means a move away from traditionally accepted methods of banking or managing finances to mixing plug and play solutions relevant to the specific requirement.

Mastering data and leveraging breakthroughs in technology such as cloud platforms, analytical capabilities, and augmented intelligence, can create levels of customer engagement and operational efficiency that were unimaginable before.

This approach is driving banking ecosystems. Using information in meaningful and straightforward ways has become the new standard in this digital era. But first, internal and external data must be aggregated, integrated, and made available to the right person at the right time via the right channel, says Microsoft.

"Operating such an ecosystem requires sophisticated marketing and analytical capabilities to aggregate multiple data sources - leveraging external data as well as internal data - and extract actionable insights, which can then be translated into personalised commercial promotions in a timely manner through the most appropriate channel for each customer, adds Accenture.

Namely, fintechs, startups, neo and challenger banks and more. The financial services landscape is no longer dominated by incumbents as new market entrants, as well as Big Tech companies like Facebook, PayPal and Apple create greater competition.

In order to remain competitive, launching ecosystems in industries characterised by the presence of large incumbent players may help ensure that new offerings rapidly reach a wider share of customers.

"As such, banks operating in countries with high concentration rates across industries have larger incentives to be first movers to secure partnerships with the largest industry players and hence gain rapid customer adoption, adds Accenture.

Key drivers changing the banking ecosystem landscape - FinTech Magazine - The FinTech & InsurTech Platform

By Tom Murray, Head of Product Strategy for LifePlus Solutions at Majesco.

Now the demand for all services to be provided digitally has rocketed and those businesses that do not have the capability to provide a completely digital experience for their customers have been left struggling to adapt to the new reality. Once the lockdown is lifted, it is unlikely that the world will ever return to the way it was before and, given the likelihood that the social distancing requirements will be extended for quite some time, it means that customers will want to utilise technology anywhere they can rather than return to the face to face retail approaches utilised before.

Whilst many life and pension providers now allow their customers some degree of digital interaction, most of this is in strictly defined areas and the process falls back to a more manual approach at key points. This is no longer going to be sufficient to satisfy the needs of millennials who naturally live on-line and the new cohort of boomers who have become far more internet-savvy during the crisis.

The challenge in this new world for financial service providers is to stand out as a supplier of financial services in a digital environment. For this to happen, providers must ensure that their digital offering is satisfying to the end-user. And what is emerging as key to achieving this is the ability to fulfil customers wishes by moving from a pure retail focus to a customer-centric approach i.e. looking to ensure that the customer can fulfil all their related needs as part of a singular, compelling experience.

Providers need to look not just at the products and services they provide but the manner of their delivery and the ecosystems in which they operate. Partnering with related service and product providers enables a much more fulfilling experience to be designed, which in turn leads to higher levels of customer trust and satisfaction.

Providing this more fulfilling experience means ensuring that the provider is using a platform which allows the building of complex services utilising providers of complementary services to focus on the broader range of customer needs for example, customers who need medical reports should be able to arrange and manage the visits for these reports from the providers portal. A one-stop-shop for all customers financial needs is the ideal goal, but a pre-requisite of this is the use of a platform which not only can access the providers legacy information but also can seamlessly link with providers of complementary services to allow the design of sophisticated financial offerings driven by customer needs, not by what the companies provide. In short, digital lifestyles presuppose a customer focussed offering rather than a supplier focussed offering.

Partnerships are vital to the success of this approach, which is predicated on enabling the rapid development of sophisticated services to end consumers. By utilising platforms that have a broad ecosystem of service providers related to life assurance, providers will be able to transform their offerings and provide the high-level digital experiences that the consumer is demanding.

Although the temptation is for life and pension providers to restrict spending in this challenging economic environment, they run the risk that by doing so, they abandon the growing section of the consumer base that demands digital interaction. The danger for companies here is that it leaves the digital field completely open to Insuretech companies, who are already in a position to reach out to the locked-down masses and build new relationships. A platform with a broad ecosystem enables existing providers to market the strength of their brand whilst creating a far greater range of digital experiences to move into new markets of the post-virus world.

This is not the time to be seeking to just tread water until business gets back to normal it never will. Instead, life and pension providers should be investing in the acceleration of their digital strategies and seeking to build broad ecosystems to meet the needs of the accelerated digital environment that the crisis has brought about. Those life and pension providers who dont will be left behind in the post-Covid19 world.

Commonly referred to as V2X, vehicle-to-everything communications technology allows vehicles to directly communicate with each other, roadside infrastructure, and other road users to deliver an array of benefits in the form of road safety, traffic efficiency, smart mobility, environmental sustainability, and driver convenience. In addition, V2X is also helping pave the way for fully autonomous driving through its unique non line-of-sight sensing capability which allows vehicles to detect potential hazards, traffic, and road conditions from longer distances and sooner than other in-vehicle sensors such as cameras, radar, and LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging).

Although legacy V2I (Vehicle-to-Infrastructure) technologies are currently in operational use worldwide for ETC (Electronic Toll Collection) and relatively simple V2I applications, advanced V2X systems capable of supporting V2V (Vehicle-to-Vehicle), V2I and other forms of V2X communications are beginning to gain broad commercial acceptance with two competing technologies vying for the attention of automakers and regulators: the commercially mature IEEE 802.11p/DSRC (Dedicated Short Range Communications) standard, and the relatively new 3GPP-defined C-V2X (Cellular V2X) technology which has a forward evolutionary path towards 5G.

With an initial focus on road safety and traffic efficiency applications, Toyota and GM (General Motors) have already equipped some of their vehicle models with IEEE 802.11p-based V2X technology in Japan and North America. Among other commercial commitments, Volkswagen will begin deploying IEEE 802.11p on volume models in Europe starting from 2019, while Geely and Ford plan to integrate C-V2X in their new vehicles by 2021 and 2022 respectively. It is also worth nothing that a number of luxury automakers including BMW, Daimler, Volkswagens subsidiary Audi, and Volvo Cars already deliver certain V2X-type applications through wide-area cellular connectivity and supporting infrastructure such as appropriately equipped roadwork trailers.

Despite the ongoing 802.11p/DSRC versus C-V2X debate, regulatory uncertainty and other challenges, global spending on V2X communications technology is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 170% between 2019 and 2022. SNS Telecom & IT predicts that by the end of 2022, V2X will account for a market worth $1.2 Billion, with an installed base of nearly 6 Million V2X-equipped vehicles worldwide.

The V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) Communications Ecosystem: 2019 2030 Opportunities, Challenges, Strategies & Forecasts report presents an in-depth assessment of the V2X ecosystem including market drivers, challenges, enabling technologies, application scenarios, use cases, business models, key trends, standardization, spectrum availability/allocation, regulatory landscape, V2X deployment case studies, opportunities, future roadmap, value chain, ecosystem player profiles and strategies.

How Coronavirus Is Impacting The V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) Communications Ecosystem: 2019 2030 3w Market News Reports - 3rd Watch News

Today, we are announcing that we have signed a definitive agreement to acquire Metaswitch Networks, a leading provider of virtualized network software and voice, data and communications solutions for operators.

The convergence of cloud and communication networks presents a unique opportunity for Microsoft to serve operators globally via continued investment in Azure, adding additional depth to our hyperscale cloud infrastructure with the specialized software required to run virtualized communication functions, applications and networks.

This announcement builds on our recent acquisition of Affirmed Networks, which closed on April 23, 2020. Metaswitchs complementary portfolio of ultra-high-performance, cloud-native communications software will expand our range of offerings available for the telecommunications industry. Microsoft intends to leverage the talent and technology of these two organizations, extending the Azure platform to both deploy and grow these capabilities at scale in a way that is secure, efficient and creates a sustainable ecosystem.

As the industry moves to 5G, operators will have opportunities to advance the virtualization of their core networks and move forward on a path to an increasingly cloud-native future. Microsoft will continue to meet customers where they are, working together with the industry as operators and network equipment providers evolve their own operations.

We will continue to support hybrid and multi-cloud models to create a more diverse telecom ecosystem and spur faster innovation, an expanded set of unique offerings and greater opportunities for differentiation. We will continue to partner with existing suppliers, emerging innovators and network equipment partners to share roadmaps and explore expanded opportunities to work together, including in the areas of radio access networks (RAN), next-generation core, virtualized services, orchestration and operations support system/business support system (OSS/BSS) modernization. A future that is interoperable has never been more important to ensure the success of customers and partners.

By enabling advancements in enhanced mobile broadband, ultra-reliable low latency communications and massive machine-type communication to enable IoT at scale, 5G offers significant potential for enterprises and governments and in turn creates new opportunities for operators. 5G will ultimately give operators a path to accelerate service innovation and deliver new transformative experiences that are faster, more resilient and more secure, spurred on by software advances to drive transformation at scale.

We have a long history of working with operators as they increasingly embrace software-based solutions and continue to support the advancement of cloud-based networking while helping create new partnership opportunities for existing network equipment providers. Our intention over time is to create modern alternatives to network infrastructure, enabling operators to deliver existing and value-added services with greater cost efficiency and lower capital investment than theyve faced in the past.

The US Mint in Denver, CO.

Over the past few months, most public cloud providers and their counterparts have doubled down on security. Recently, Google pushed multiple new security enhancements to augment its already secure ecosystem. The Google Cloud Platform (GCP) has come a long way in assuaging privacy and security concerns. However, the kicker with GGP remainsyou must be within the Google ecosystem. If not, you are on your own (which is not always a bad thing). One of the most exciting components of Google's strategy is its stance that security starts from the chip level and ends up with the Chrome browser. Google's approach is divergent from what many public cloud providers offer as point solutions in a sea of security diversity and methods. What Google lacks in its IoT and endpoint security in a distributed environment, it makes up for with a centralized cloud infrastructure that has tremendous capabilities.

One of Googles key criticisms is how it upholds the privacy of its users, both enterprise and consumer. GCP has done an excellent job of alleviating many of its privacy challenges and concerns. In a recent conversation I had with the Google team, they demonstrated their commitment to providing secure enterprise solutions and applications while protecting the privacy of their users. I was especially impressed with their focus on not just a single-point solution, but an ecosystem that encompasses a chip to browser security approach. Although many users are suspicious of Google's approach, it is one of the most secure ecosystems (not to mention the functionality of applications) in the industry today.

Cloud-based surveillance and information is the new business model

For the past 30+ years, we have trusted companies to make our lives more productive while they use our data to learn about what we want as consumers. Now, Google, Facebook, Amazon and others are using data and algorithms to predict what we as consumers think we desire. From a security perspective, it is essential to understand how these companies are using our personal information. The bottom line is these companies are in the surveillance business. If Facebook or Twitter were a CIA or NSA project, it would be the most successful intelligence operation in history. How else would you get unwitting people to input who their friends are, their political leanings, which religion they belong to, where they work, and what they do in their spare time?

Further, most users allow these organizations to track and provide data to external businesses and organizations that want to buy information from our computers, cellphones and other devices solely for the price of convenience. In my last article, I mentioned that we believe over 5,000 companies have access to your information just by turning on your smartphone. Sadly, we, as a society, are happy to sacrifice convenience and information at the cost of security and privacy.

On the flip side, control of information versus the "common good"

Unfortunately, and in my opinion, one of the byproducts of our willingness to sacrifice privacy for security is allowing social media companies to influence the narrative. The current COVID-19 pandemic has showed us what lengths these companies will go to control speech and dissent, all for the "common good" or whoever sets the narrative du jour. The amount of information we provide to these companies should be tantamount to our ability to express our viewpoints and opinions. Sadly, most social media platforms disagree. However, Google has quietly been focusing on putting a platform that provides functionality, security, privacy and an ecosystem back into the hands of the consumer. I am okay with the balance Google strikes from a privacy and functionality perspectiveit just works, but its up to the user to understand the tradeoffs. Stay safe and secure my friends.

Increase in realization for endpoint and VPN security measures drives the cybersecurity market during the COVID-19 crisis

COVID-19 crisis has transformed the thought process of a company's management and board toward cybersecurity. Especially, SMBs, startups, and large enterprises, except technology giants, were considering cybersecurity budgets as unavoidable Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) due to regulatory and compliance measures. Several digital agencies are yet to have a cybersecurity policy in place. This crisis has exposed companies to scenarios where their IPs are at the mercy and conduct of their employees, working remotely either on office laptops with zero firewall protection or personal laptops with/without free antivirus packages.

Endpoint security segment to show the highest growth rate during the forecast period in the cybersecurity market

Endpoint security solutions are a combination of both Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) and Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions. Together these solutions secure endpoints and remote devices used in organizations from viruses, Trojans, and malware, as well as advanced threats, such as zero-day malware and advanced persistent threats. EDR solutions enable continuous detection of and response to advanced cybersecurity threats and considerably improve threat detection, security monitoring, and incident response proficiencies for enterprises across verticals.

Healthcare segment to record higher investment and growth in 2020

COVID-19 poses an occupational health risk to healthcare workers, where COVID-19 has infected thousands of healthcare workers worldwide. Hence, preventing intra-hospital transmission of this communicable disease is a key priority for healthcare institutions and administrative bodies. As the remote and teleworking modes are adopted in the healthcare industry, the possibility of using personal devices and the home internet connections that do not have the enterprise-grade security would result in remote users vulnerable to malicious cyberattacks. In February 2020, WHO warned of fraudulent emails that have been sent by criminals posing as WHO. Cybercriminals have also been impersonating the US CDC by creating domain names similar to the CDC's web address to request passwords and even Bitcoin donations to fund a fake vaccine.

North America to record the largest market share in the global cybersecurity market impacted by COVID-19 crisis

North America is expected to hold the largest share in the global cybersecurity industry, while Asia Pacific (APAC) is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The high growth rate in APAC can be attributed to organizations in the region, grabbing opportunities to go beyond ensuring their regulations and compliances, and applying technology to curtail threats on enterprise devices. Additionally, the region has the highest adoption of mobile devices and connected devices that are highly vulnerable to endpoint attacks.

North America is the most significant revenue contributor to the cybersecurity market. The region is witnessing significant developments, especially in the endpoint security segment. In North America, the high penetration of this technology can be attributed to the increasing use of the automation and behavioral analysis for threat detection, growing amount of data across verticals, and rising investments by companies in real-time security solutions.

Impact of COVID-19 on the World's Cybersecurity Industry, Major Verticals, Regions and Key Vendors (2019-2021): Optimistic/as-is/Pessimistic Scenarios...

Ethereum, the second-largest crypto in the world, has seen significant growth over the years, in terms of both upgrades and the coins performance on the whole. In fact, the Ethereum Alliance in 2017 had also promised to drive the use of Ethereum blockchain technology as an open-standard to empower all enterprises. Its been three years now, but has the alliance lived up to its hype? Joseph Lubin, the founder of ConsenSys, believes it has.

At the recent Ethereal Summit, Lubin was of the opinion that the alliance has had an impact on the ecosystem, living up to all the hype and claims. He stated,

It is hard to notice that from the outside. But from the inside, there is an amazing amount of high-value activity. The alliances major mission was o find the specifications. What to build around them and that has been valuable to make ETH so much accessible.

At the moment, the ETH2 upgrade is the center of attraction. The ETH community and the entire ecosystem has been waiting for this upgrade. But, is ETH2 really the big next big wave in the ETH ecosystem?

By the looks of it, ETH2 does look like the next big thing that can happen to the ecosystem. The shift from PoW to PoS is a much-required step considering the fact that ETH prioritizes security and reducing the wastage of energy [mining]. Most importantly, this upgrade is a boon to not just users, but also developers, according to Lubin. He added,

For developers, it is going to feel like an operating system upgrade, and it is an organic transition to more capabilities. We are going to solve problems and come up with new features.

Decentralized Finance [DeFi] is another big sector thats growing leaps and bounds at the moment. Built on Ethereum, the fact that the DeFi market saw strong recovery post the March market crash proves it to be a promising sector. With this, DeFi has started to move from being a niche market to mainstream finance. Further commenting on this rapid growth, Lubin noted,

All of this will lead to much more granular governance in the world and we are going to be able to create our own token in different projects. I think that it is going to be an empowering future where people and small organizations have more economical agency.
