Objective and Scope:

The client, a premier industry association in India, wanted to conduct a conclave on emerging technologies and their socio-economic impact in India. The conclave intended to include participation from government officials, company executives, subject matter experts, and thought leaders. To make the conversation in the conclave more focused and actionable, the client wanted Benori’s support in creating a detailed report on the use cases of augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR), blockchain, and Internet of Things (IoT) in major industries, along with a brief overview of these technologies.

Approach:

The information for the report was gathered through extensive secondary research and primary interviews with stakeholders, including senior technology executives and founders of start-ups working in the field of disruptive technologies. Global and Indian use cases for each technology were added across major industries. The use cases were shortlisted based on inputs gathered during primary research and client feedback.

Impact:

The research helped the client in:

• Gaining an understanding of the emerging technologies and their socio-economic impact on different industries
• Providing a conversation trigger for the industry and government stakeholders on ways to promote the adoption of these technologies
