(Please make sure to label this part as – Part 2: Technology for Business Micro-Perspective)
Next, propose a type of technology, ICT, or IoT e.g., Miro board project collaboration, Qualtrics Survey platform for market research, Prezi Presentation for presentations, Monday.com for project tracking, PowerBI for data reporting, etc. You may also propose/present Web or social media analytics, search engine optimization, data mining and modelling techniques (i.e., understanding & predicting behaviors).
Please make sure that the technology you will be proposing/presenting or technology optimization technique is an open-source (free to use) or an initial start of use is an open-source so that you can present and demonstrate your technology during our Week 10 Assignment 2 Presentation.
You are to explain the technology, the purpose, and how and why a business can be more effective and can benefits from use. Please note, the technology you are proposing for Assignment 1 Proposal – you will need to present and demonstrate during our Week 10 Assignment 2 Presentation.
Or (Another option for Part 2)
Part 2: Technology for Business Macro-Perspective
(Please make sure to label this part as – Part 2: Technology for Business Macro-Perspective)
Propose a larger technology perspective that has business and societal impact e.g., banning all combustion engine and using all electric cars (New Zealand proposal of banning combustion engine vehicles by 2040), digital currency, robotics, etc.
If this is your Technology for Business (Marco-Perspective), then your theory framework will be limited to PESTEL (or possibly SWOT), as this framework examines and critically analyzes wider perspectives and aiming at Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Environmental, and Legal (or Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, Threats).
