NTT DATA revealed that the world is moving towards new mega-trends. “Society 5.0” aims to bring technology to solve modern social challenges along with creating excellent economic progress. The COVID-19 crisis accelerated the demand in applying technology to create a better society in many countries including Thailand. Nowadays, the Thai industrial sector focuses on full digital transformation paving the way for new mega-trends. Thailand sees this opportunity and is ready to support the full service of digital transformation, bringing the strength of global experience to become a trusted partner for local enterprise and multinational companies in Thailand, while NTT DATA aims to reach the Top 5 in the global IT service market.
Hironari Tomioka, president & CEO at NTT DATA (Thailand), reveals that currently, the world is entering a new world change, or mega-trends, in the Society 5.0 era, aiming to solve various modern social challenges.
For instance, the gradual increase of elderly people marks a labor shortage of working-age workers due to lower birth rates. By integrating innovations from new technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Robotics, AI and Big Data into all industries and social activities, this will become a human-centered society wherein humans, nature, and technology work together to create sustainable living, with Japan being the first country to apply such an idea. Complementing this is the spread of COVID-19 as a disruptor, accelerating all countries around the world to move faster into Society 5.0.
