Key Growth Opportunities in Digital Content Services
To guide business leaders with actionable intelligence that maximizes innovation amid this transformation, Frost & Sullivan has launched a series of Think Tanks on Digital Content Services. These bring together cross-functional experts to identify new opportunities, navigate growth challenges, and implement disruptive technologies, while unlocking robust strategies for competitive differentiation. Here are some promising opportunities our recent Think Tanks have uncovered:
- Leveraging Advancements in XR to Deliver Immersive Healthcare: Traditional healthcare planning methods expose gaps in communication, impacting both healthcare professionals and patients. Further, current surgical planning workflows are time-consuming and complex. This positions medical VR for training and education as a key enabling technology for future generations of healthcare professionals, surgeons, and residents. Although still in its early stages, the medical VR industry is set for rapid growth fueled by the digitalization of healthcare and telemedicine.
- Harnessing Edge Strategies in Content Delivery Networks (CDNs): As businesses accelerate their digital transformation efforts, CDNs are proving to be crucial for managing websites, data-heavy applications, video streaming, and online services. Further, the demand for efficient data flow is prompting companies to adopt distributed edge architectures for reducing network latency and enabling real-time processing. Consequently, providers feel the pressure to develop multifaceted, hybrid business models that cater to diverse industries and expand services around new networking needs.
