Tech Predictions Of 2014 - Guest Post By Sanjay Deshmukh, Citrix

The following is a guest post by Sanjay Deshmukh, Area Vice President, India subcontinent, Citrix.

Our workplace is going through a rapid transformation led by change in the way we work. Today "work" is no more a place we go to. It's what we do when ever and where ever business needs to be done. Given the impact of globalisation and also focus on customer majority of workforce prefers a flexible working environment which is not restricted within office premises and devices, and the tech savvy millennial generation is actively driving the evolution of IT consumerization at workplaces in India. In addition, widespread smartphone penetration in India coupled with strong convergence between mobile and internet, provides enterprises a convenient medium for improving access to technology and mobility solutions to their customers, employees and contractors. As a result, mobility has become one of the key drivers for business transformation and growth and a topmost priority on the boardroom agenda. As we progress into the future, there will be a need to redefine the purview of mobility from being restricted to devices and the security to a more overarching vision of enabling employees to work from anywhere and thus mobilizing all the aspects of business viz Data, enterprise and native applications, Collaboration and Support which are required to fulfil this vision’ In this context of the new found imperatives of Indian organisations we anticipate the following top technology trends in 2014.

Amar Chitra Katha App Launched For Microsoft Windows 8 Devices At Comic Con India

Now the same comics are available on your Windows 8 devices, thanks to the launch of ACK Comics app from the publishers of Amar Chitra Katha. The launch happened aptly at the Comic Con India convention being held at Goregaon, Mumbai. The event started with a small interactive skit where actors dressed as characters from ACK comics (Akbar, Birbal, Rani Lakshmibai, Kalidasa, and Chanakya) interacted with the audience to draw the conclusion that the audience does not recognise them anymore. They then discuss the matter and arrive at a solution that an app would be the best way to reintroduce them to people.
