The global business and finance scene is undergoing wave after wave of transformation and disruption like never before. Meetings no longer take place in boardrooms, shopping does not just happen in malls, and financial transactions no longer need to involve banks. Technology has enabled the creation of what is known as the Trust Economy – where consumers safely transact directly with each other on a level of trust and assurance provided by technology.
Disruptive Technologies such as cloud computing, artificial intelligence (AI), cyber security, Internet of Things (IoT), data science and business intelligence are revolutionising the world of business and finance like never before. Therefore, students aspiring to join the world of business and finance choose to ignore this at their own peril.
