Gartner: Bring Your Mobile Strategy Up To Date

The mobile technologies Gartner thinks should have an impact on mobile strategies going forward include everything from new faster and more capable versions of Bluetooth, to mobile widgets, to enhanced location awareness and cellular broadband.

“Gartner, Inc. has identified 10 mobile technologies that will evolve significantly through 2011 in ways that will impact short-term mobile strategies and policies. Investments in mobile applications and technologies will increase through 2011 as organizations emerge from the recession and ramp up both business-to-employee (B2E) and business-to-consumer (B2C) mobile spending.

‘We are highlighting these 10 mobile technologies that should be on every organization’s radar screen,’ said Nick Jones, vice president and distinguished analyst at Gartner. ‘These mobile technologies were selected because they will evolve in ways that affect corporate strategies, significant numbers of customers or employees will adopt or expect them, or they will address particular mobile challenges that organizations will face through 2011.'”
