Abstract

Technology has been the driver of success for modern businesses. From production to advertising to trade to security, technology in some form or other always gets associated with various business actions. As and when any new technology evolves, industries and production houses try to adopt that technology (whenever feasible) to improve their performance. The induction of new technologies in businesses requires upgradation of skills to perform a wide range of associated business functions. Broadly, from increasing efficiency to increasing profit, technology is known to play a dominant role in various sectors of businesses.
