Description

This IDC study presents IDC's top 10 predictions for the Philippines for 2007. These important future trends and events, which resulted from the collective opinions of IDC's industry experts, are also guaranteed as significant insights that will require executive attention and will consequently drive strategic choices for the year ahead.

"The 2007 spending will center on overall IT consolidation, building a secure IT environment, and reducing the total cost of IT. These factors will drive the need for vendors to innovate their existing product portfolios, redefine their business strategies, and expand to new and unchartered business areas. Information and communication technology (ICT) players that are not jumping out of the box will be left out while enterprising players who are keen on exploring new ideas while keeping a focal view of end-user buying behaviors, competitive dynamics, technological movements, and macroeconomic indicators will gain needed market traction," says Jubert Daniel Alberto, senior analyst, Peripherals and Consulting Research, IDC Philippines.
