TabletBiz 2013 

“The Future of Business Interactions”

By Michael Danilov & Malko Ebers



The recent TabletBiz conference in New York was a showcase for cutting edge technology and recent developments in tablet hard and software. Moreover the conference allowed us to get insights into App based business solutions and how mobility, apps and smartphones are changing our lifestyle and the way modern business is conducted. The way how people use IT solutions is already transforming our societies.

Nowadays tablets have become much cheaper than traditional computers or laptops while increasing the mobility and functionality for the user for business and leisure alike. Big companies are finally getting it mining the data of their users, putting software applications into the cloud which can dramatically reduce costs and gives companies more instant feedback which applications and functions the users are actually using.

A company that realizes and takes advantage of these stable trends can operate cheaper faster and easier. We can think of mobile payment options, real time inventory, the easy of reward systems, the advertisements and incentives for a mobile customer and much more. The metaphor of the flat world got realized also through tablets. Prices have come down, processor and internet speed have gone up and fast internet has become a commodity for creative people and start ups to take advantage off. In a way this development has transformed apps into a commodity, a true mass customization where every user picks the functions that he or she demands. This development has democratized the access to IT.

Paperless data entry, payment and visualization that tables and mobile applications allow for will continue to transform our economies, they will make the way we shop, work and educate each other more mobile, faster and more suitable to our modern individualized lifestyle.

The TabletBiz Team showed a lot of different cases where you can use tablet in your everyday business. The closing of the event was the Tabby Awards ceremony with some beautiful app solutions. Have a look for example at dictionary.com.
