Companies for years have been dealing with an aging workforce, losing talent and know-how to retirement. Now the pandemic has accelerated this, in all industries, and at all levels. How do you replace the 20-year service or maintenance veterans and the know-how that is in their heads? Right now, your best techs are super busy supporting customers and newer techs. One of them calls you tomorrow and says they are suddenly retiring. How can you make up for their knowledge once they walk out the door?

The COVID-19 pandemic and global health crisis that began in 2020 shed light on several supply-chain issues, weaknesses, and vulnerabilities. Ideally, during a crisis, the U.S. would be able to rise to the occasion, shifting gears quickly and efficiently to ensure that whatever resources are in short supply—whether it’s toilet paper, food, medicine, or something else—make their way into the hands of those in need. Unfortunately, at the beginning of the pandemic, this wasn’t the case. It became clear that, in general, supply chains in the U.S. weren’t quite as flexible and agile as they needed to be. And now, the White House is looking to create systemic change that could strengthen U.S. supply chains and prevent similar situations from happening again.

From buses, to trams and trains, to construction equipment, to the very cars we drive, more often vehicles are becoming equipped with self-driving technology. We know AVs can help reduce congestion and make mobility more comfortable, but we also know there are a lot of factors that need to converge to help make this a reality—and perhaps that time is now.

According to Deloitte’s latest CFO Signals report, which highlights Q4 2020, company CFOs appear optimistic upon entering 2021 and expect operations could approach near-normal sometime during the second half of next year. While fewer than a quarter (18%) of CFOs rated the North American economy as “good” right now, more than half (59%) expect better conditions by the end of 2021.

One question is how the COVID-19 pandemic affected the progress of 5G, if at all. A recent Verizon report demonstrates that business technology decisionmakers are more confident in 5G and poised to take advantage of it than ever before. Another new report, this one from Spirent Communications, suggests 5G’s future has “never been brighter.” Are these invested companies contributing to the 5G hype cycle, or are they just calling it like it is?
