A Blockchain is a new data structure that creates trusted, distributed digital ledgers for assets and other data. It is an immutable record of digital events shared peer-to-peer between different parties. The rise of Blockchain opportunities has been enabled by breakthroughs in cryptography and computing, the tipping point of which was the 2008 paper introducing Bitcoin.
AI is a general class of technologies that seek to emulate human cognitive capabilities. Included are areas such as Machine Learning (ML), intelligent agents (IAs), deep learning, and natural language processing (NLP).
RPA is the use of software that incorporates technologies such as AI and ML to automate routine, high-volume tasks that are sensitive to human error.
AI, Blockchain, and RPA solutions drive many of the current technologies and services in the market. The revenues generated by these solutions are distributed in different services lines, as detailed below:
