As technology evolves, many companies are trying to keep up. But it was the Covid-19 pandemic that forced businesses of all sizes in all industries to switch to remote operations in an instant. Many employees are still working remotely, and many plan to continue doing remote work.
According to a Gallup poll in May 2021, 52% of the entire workforce works remotely, with numbers higher than 80% in many industries. As many as 35% of workers want to remain remote in the long term, and this figure rises to over 50% in some fields.
When the pandemic hit, everyone was forced to scramble, doing their best with whatever technology they already had or could quickly implement. This is causing a fundamental shift in the way we work, and companies must carefully consider their business strategies. Business and technology are now inextricably linked, so it makes sense to implement technology as a core part of a successful business strategy.

Technology as a business strategy refers to the concept of applying technology at all levels of your business plan. Instead of placing technology in a separate space under the direction of the company's chief technical officer (CTO) or chief information officer (CIO), technology becomes a core component in all aspects of business operations.
Depending on the nature of your company, technology as a business strategy can generally be divided into three core categories :

1. Protection.
Cyber hacking has become a common threat to companies of all sizes. Implementing technology as a core business strategy helps you direct resources towards security upgrades and training, as well as disaster planning and recovery. This allows you to develop security strategies for employees at all levels, in every department.

2. Upgrades.
With a largely remote workforce and a user base accustomed to shopping online during the pandemic, technology is more important than ever. Technology as a business strategy allows you to plan critical rollouts that improve the experience for employees and customers.

3. Innovation.
Unfortunately, even companies that have implemented tech tools for cybersecurity and operational improvements are not capitalizing on internal innovation. Establishing innovation periods every week, month or quarter allows your tech professionals to tinker with existing tools and examine new options to provide the most comprehensive solution for your business.
