FOREWORD
The future belongs to those who use technology
to address society’s most pressing challenges—
and the future is bright, given that the world is in the early stages of a
technology-led investment cycle. Dell Technologies has a proud history of
democratizing technology to advance human progress. Our next challenge
is to build the platform that will collect, analyze, and draw insights from
the world’s data to positively impact humanity.
With new technologies continuing to evolve at a rapid pace, we have much
to be optimistic about. For example, recent Dell Technologies research
in partnership with Vanson Bourne revealed that 67 percent of leaders
anticipate using new technologies to create more equal opportunities by
removing human bias in decision-making. When I consider the fact that
Dell Technologies serves 98 percent of the Fortune 500 companies, I see
limitless possibilities to partner with our customers, applying our portfolio
and scale to solve some of the world’s largest challenges. Together, we can
shape a digital future that is more equitable, sustainable, and innovative.
In this issue of Realize, you’ll get a glimpse into the next decade—from
the technological shifts that will reshape our daily lives to the commitments
we are making to cultivate inclusion, advance sustainability, and
transform the lives of billions. You’ll find stories of the changemakers using
technology to create financial equity, help us live longer and healthier lives,
design digital cities for the masses, and, ultimately, shape optimism in the
digital future.
