Welcome to Tech matters, an exploration into the technologies that have impacted society and their role in shaping our future.

At Analysys Mason, we know technology well. We have been at the heart of change, helping forward-thinkers harness technologies that have charted the course of progress.

We are exploring some of the technologies that we rely on everyday and perhaps take for granted. Starting with the internet. We will answer questions around how it works, why it was developed and what it could do in the not too distant future.

Because the more we all know, the better we can all shape the next.

The image is not loaded.

We are exploring technologies that have impacted our society, starting with the internet. Its foundations, what’s happening today and how it could impact our future.
