DISRUPTION VULNERABILITY
Belonging to the business services sector means this company will be affected directly and indirectly by a number of disruptive opportunities and challenges over the coming decades. While described in detail within Quantumrun’s special reports, these disruptive trends can be summarized along the following broad points:
*The shrinking cost and increasing computational capacity of artificial intelligence systems will lead to its greater use across a number of applications within the business services world. All regimented or codified tasks and professions will see greater automation, leading to dramatically reduced operating costs and sizeable layoffs of white and blue-collar employees.
*Blockchain technology will be co-opted and integrated into the operations of a range of business services providers, significantly reducing transaction costs and automating complex contract agreements.
