In 2025, the concept of a “smart city” has moved beyond sensor-enabled streetlights and mobility apps; it is increasingly a macro-economic force and an environmental imperative. Urban centres are now laboratories in which data, connectivity and infrastructure converge in...
The global communications landscape is once again approaching a tipping point. After years of investment and rollout, 5G is still being adopted worldwide — yet researchers, policymakers, and industry leaders are already preparing for the next frontier: 6G, edge...
The global information and communications technology (ICT) sector is undergoing a profound realignment. Once defined by the sale of hardware and networking infrastructure, the industry is now being reshaped by the demands of digital transformation — the integration of...
The global Information and Communications Technology (ICT) sector enters 2025 at a pivotal crossroads, driven by strong momentum in artificial intelligence (AI), infrastructure modernization, and digital transformation. Yet beneath this optimism lies a complex landscape marked by market maturity,...
Information and communications technology (ICT) has become both an enabler of global sustainability and a growing source of environmental strain. As digital networks expand and devices proliferate, the sector’s carbon footprint has risen sharply, challenging the idea that technology...
For half a century, Moore’s Law was the gospel of the computing world. Coined in 1965 by Intel co-founder Gordon Moore, it predicted that the number of transistors on a chip would double roughly every two years, bringing faster...
Growing Attention to ICT Emissions and Climate Impact
ICT Share of Global GHG Emissions (2015–2030)The information and communications technology (ICT) sector, once hailed as a vehicle for efficiency and dematerialization, now stands accused of underestimating its own environmental cost. The...
Artificial intelligence is no longer confined to the visible interfaces of chatbots, recommendation engines, or automated assistants. Increasingly, it is being woven into the very architecture of digital infrastructure, silently powering networks, securing systems, and shaping how applications function....
