Today’s CIO wears many hats, as the role has evolved dramatically over the last few years. With digital transformation being a top priority for organizations, many CIOs are engaged in a broad range of activities at the epicenter of business transformation. In fact, Lenovo’s recent Global CIO Research study surveyed over 500 CIOs worldwide, and 92% said that the CIO roles have changed (download required), with many reporting they are being asked to “make business decisions that go far beyond technology.”
Data quality management efforts — tied to disrupting innovations, rapid market shifts and regulation pressures — will continue to grow in 2023 and take on a more dominant role in the data management ecosystem. Turning to the cloud, edge, 5G and machine learning, hybrid worldwide workforces and global customers are generating data at levels never experienced before.
One of the biggest general problems you’ll face as an early-stage startup founder is trying to achieve too much with too few resources. The general principle of solving this problem is to focus your efforts as much as possible - forgo scope in order to achieve higher depth.
he government is expected to allocate around ₹6,000 crore each for production-linked incentive (PLI) schemes for electrolyzers and green hydrogen from the ₹20,000 crore green hydrogen mission, said two people aware of the developments.
Building materials and construction generate about 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Much of these emissions are due to the environmentally unfriendly process of producing ordinary Portland cement, which is widely used in construction materials such as concrete and mortar.
In spring 2022, Mazda unveiled a rotary-powered plug-in hybrid model as part of its ever-expanding MX-30 lineup. Although the Hiroshima-based automaker is not returning the rotary engine quite the way most gearheads expected, the majority still reminisce on how much it defined automotive history. While other carmakers tried and failed to make the rotary engine a success, Mazda's engineers took Felix Wankel's design concept and brought it to fruition.

Scientists working at Yale and the University of Rhode Island (URI) have discovered a new molecular cancer treatment that can home in on cancer cells and eradicate tumors in mice. The tests so far have proven to offer exceptionally grand results, and even a single dose was enough to destroy some of the most advanced tumors.
Content, likes, shares — there's so much more to an online presence than SEO, and we've been empowered to do it all. But why are so many Entrepreneurs falling short regarding content for their business? The answer is plain and straightforward; they are not a photographer or a videographer.
Traveling throughout the U.S. for business, Dan Kerr regularly comes across investors who have heard rumblings about the burgeoning Kansas City tech startup ecosystem, he said.
BENTONVILLE, Ark., Oct. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Technology transfers – or outputs from research institutions that lead to innovation beyond the walls of academia – are essential fuel for the economic growth of state economies. Building on the insights offered in Research to Renewal: Advancing University Tech Transfer, published in May 2022 and released at the organization's flagship event, Heartland Summit, Heartland Forward's new report From Research to Renewal, Part 2: States Realizing the Potential of Research Institutions provides the first new benchmark comparison for public universities structured as part of a state system and also considers institutions (hospitals, private research institutes and federal labs) that do not grant degrees but are important sources of research and innovation that bolster state economies.
Without much fanfare, Congress recently passed legislation reauthorizing the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs and President Biden quickly signed it into law. The reauthorization of this critical program builds off of important pieces of recent economic legislation like the Inflation Reduction Act, the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and the American Rescue Plan. While many Americans, including small business owners and entrepreneurs, may not be aware of either of these U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) efforts, their reauthorization is a big deal for innovation.
Many people dream of starting their own company and running their own business. Yet, most of them do not know what is important and how much work is involved in founding a company. Also, fewer people have what it takes to become a successful entrepreneur: a lot of motivation, preparation, discipline and skill.
Hydrogen could play a major role in emissions reduction by 2030 thanks to the scaling up of low-carbon "green hydrogen" production, the non-profit Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI) explained last week in a blog post.
Irish company OceanEnergy has already tested its oscillating water column generators at significant scale in Hawaii, and it's just signed on to a four-year project to test, validate and commercialize its biggest unit yet off Orkney, in Scotland. The OE35, billed as the world's largest capacity floating wave energy device, is certainly an imposing thing to look at. While no dimensions have yet been drawn up for the machine to be built for Scotland as yet, the machine the company built for testing at a US Navy test site in Hawaii measures 125 x 59 ft (38.1 x 18 m), with a draft of 31 ft (9.4 m) and a total weight of 826 tons.
Plastic is everywhere. According to the US Department of Energy’s National Renewable Laboratory (NREL), in the United States, only 5 percent of plastic used is actually recycled. This is in large because plastics are not all chemically the same, making it harder and more expensive to separate individual polymers. These mixed plastics often build up in landfills and in the environment.
Most talk about quantum computing today, at least in HPC circles, focuses on advancing technology and the hurdles that remain. There are plenty of the latter. Financial services giant JPMorgan Chase (JPMC) takes a different, distinctly user perspective, generally steering clear of the qubit technology battles and instead focusing on becoming being quantum-ready now. Quantum information science, believes JPMC, isn’t a nice-to-learn area but a must-learn. QIS will upend many existing practices and introduce new ones.
From the calendar system which structures modern day life, to shaving tools, writing utensils, and recreational activities, the Ancient Egyptian civilization invented many meaningful tools and systems which are major parts of modern day life. Without these innovations, who knows how long it would have been before similar things were created or adopted into every day use?
“The 2022 venture capital market” is nearly a misnomer, as each quarter that passes seems to bring with it a new normal for startup investment. The pace of quarterly change in how venture investors are disbursing capital is making full-year numbers almost misleading.
Venture-capital firms are jumping into the stock market, buying up battered shares in publicly traded tech companies at a time when they are investing less in the startups that have long been their focus.
