THE Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of digitalisation. Dobrica Savic wrote in his paper, “Covid-19 and Work from Home: Digital Transformation”, that the global spread of Covid-19 forced businesses to innovate and change their business practices. Working from home suddenly became mandatory and the importance of office spaces has waned. This sudden need to work from home is speeding up the digital transformation of the workplace.

Food ordering and grocery shopping systems, as well as fintech networks are all expanding, signalling that the world is shifting towards electronic solutions.
