The MENA region has recently seen a significant increase in the adoption of technology as a means of powering growth, but there still is plenty of underutilized potential. Human experience platforms have been gaining ground; there has been an upsurge in investments in digital transformation, IoT and machine learning; and automation is accelerating. In the private sector, this has led to a growing demand for insights about the regulatory environment in the MENA region. And in the public sector, this has fueled demand for in-depth analyses of and advisory on trending technology and influential players.

In listening to their views, priorities, aspirations and concerns, we challenged our own assumptions about the state-of-affairs and trends likely to have the most profound impact on life and work in years to come.
