As the year draws to a close its customer to think to the year to come but also reflect on the year past, or in some cases the years passed. Earlier this month Jamie Macgregor posted a blog with 5 predictions for 2018. We at Celent know that it is sometimes hard to keep track of all things posted and easy to miss a few posts along the way.

So, to that end here we deliver the gifts of Celent past – organised by the predictions for 2018. Think of it as a mix between a flash back episode and a present of holiday evening reading. Some of these will link to reports only available to clients, others to blogs that may require a log in to see the full text – much like this blog itself.

Where to start? Well, let’s take the topics in the order of the predictions…

• Industry 4.0
• Build vs Buy and the API Economy
• Innovation and InsurTech
• Data Privacy
