These are some of the findings from the Bosch Tech Compass, a representative survey of the general public in China, India, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
The survey had its global debut at CES 2022. In view of the rapid and profound changes technology is driving in many spheres of life, the Bosch Tech Compass aims to encourage people to take a closer look at the positive impact of technological progress on a globalised world.
Technology to play a key role in combating climate change
Climate change is a global concern of pivotal importance to individuals, communities and organisations. While technology is in every sector, using technology to combat climate change has gained importance lately.
“Creating an ecologically sound and sustainable environment should be an imperative for individuals and organisations and not just an afterthought,” said Krishnamurthy Vadiraj, Head Technology and Innovation – BGSW.
“People want technology to help them live a better quality of life that offers convenience and an ideal way of living. Bosch Tech Compass shows how technology is instrumental in solving the climate crisis,” added Vadiraj.
Technology that will be the most influential in 10 years
About which of the technologies will be the most influential in their own country, the vast majority of respondents in India and China said 5G, AI and IoT.
While the US and UK added self-driving/automated driving along with AI and 5G as the most influential. The future relevance of specific technologies from a global response is clearly dominated by AI (43%) and 5G (42%) worldwide.
