Summary

CIOs need to help design great mobile moments that drive revenue growth, improve the customer experience, or even transform their companies' business models. This report highlights the most important technologies that will enable the mobile mind shift over the coming three to five years: mobile broadband, multiplatform application development, sensors, near field communication, data management, geolocation, speech recognition, mobile wallets, and mobile device batteries. These technologies are not necessarily on the cutting edge; they're significant because of the ways leading businesses are beginning to deploy them in combination. When combined, these mobile technologies will significantly change how organizations engage with users and enhance their experiences. CIOs can no longer afford to look at these mobile technologies as silos or nice-to-haves — they need to make mobility a cornerstone of their business technology agenda.
