Emerging ebusiness trends for small businesses
Posted 19 January 2007 at 9:00AM by Alexa Williamson in Doing business online
Where is ebusiness (ie running your business in an online environment) heading over the next year - or even the next few years? To try and answer this question, Scottish Enterprise has conducted in-depth research into seven of the emerging trends, which they think will affect small and medium-size businesses, from now until 2011.
The report is called Future trends for e-business to 2011 (PDF) and is available on their site.
The key issues researched include:
- the need for a richer customer experience
- flexible working practices
- mobile and wireless communications
- security
- supply chain efficiency
- knowledge management
- changes in technology
Although the research was carried out with Scottish SMEs, the findings are helpful to all businesses in the UK.
