Digital business is the creation of new business designs by blurring the digital and physical worlds. Digital business promises to usher in an unprecedented convergence of people, business, and things that disrupts existing business models. With more than seven billion people and businesses, and at least 35 billion devices, communicating, transacting, and even negotiating with each other, a new world comes into being — the using technology tools like computers, laptops, mobile phones, tablets, and the internet. All processes and transactions in digital business are done using paperless with the proper use of blockchain technology communicating through hash-codes and QR Codes. Gartner’s digital business research examines what is driving this convergence and how IT leaders can take their place among the digital leaders of the future.
