Issue #6 features
Feature 1 - Healthcare – How the NHS is embracing the digital age.
We don’t think of the NHS to be at the forefront of technological innovation. Make your own mind up on funding and support but new technologies are now being rolled out to ease the weight on GPs, monitor people’s health and carry out operations.
The NHS have also been hit by the end of life announcement for Windows 7 but does this present an opportunity for resellers to explore new technologies, aside from the tradition desktop set up, to drive efficiencies.
We will ask vendors and suppliers:
- What technologies are most popular in healthcare institutions?
- What are the main barriers to introducing new technologies?
- Have any new systems come as a result of the Windows 7 switch off?
- How are healthcare institutions embracing mobility?
DEADLINE: 24th Jan
Feature 2 - AI for partners – Where is the money?
AI has been a buzzword in the industry for a long time now. Otherwise known as Machine Learning, the concept has, rightly, been championed by the likes of Microsoft for the past two years. However, where does the monetary value kick in? Getting systems to collect and kick out just enough data to take action is a valuable prospect but where is the opportunity for resellers and are there any models that have been particularly successful?
We will ask the market:
- How easy is it to install an artificial intelligent system into a business?
- Where in business is AI having the biggest impact?
- What are the frustrations that come from installing an AI solution?
- Do resellers need to bring AI skills in-house?
- How is this market likely to evolve for resellers over the next 12 months?
DEADLINE: 24th Jan

Sector in Focus – Mobile World Congress 2020/Mobile
Without a doubt, the smartphone is one of the most important pieces of technology that we carry around on a daily basis. A camera, a phone, internet browser and, increasingly, our wallet, there seems to be no bounds to how it can enhance our lives. But what makes a device stand out in such a saturated market? How will iterations impact businesses?
We’ll ask:
- What are the key differentiators in the mobile industry?
- What are the key announcements from MWC 2020 which impact resellers?
- How have foldable displays proliferated a year after becoming commercially available?
- What is next for mobile? Where will the next phase of differentiation and innovation come?
DEADLINE: 21st Feb
