#DellTechnologies says it stands behind newest tech challenges US tech giant #Dell Technologies has warned businesses they will become obsolete if they fail to adapt to the current “fourth industrial revolution”, and it voiced its readiness to help them get through this big challenge. Michael Dell, chairman and chief executive of Dell Technologies, and other top company executives issued the warning during “ #Dell #EMC World 2016” held recently in Austin, capital of the US state of Texas. They expressed confidence that after the merger of Dell Corporation and EMC Corporation, they were now in a better position to help their customers survive the fast-changing landscape of this digital era. Dell Technologies has advantages over its competitors thanks to its complete range of products from hardware and software to cloud-computing and data-centre solutions, its executives told the audience at the event’s opening ceremony. The CEO claimed the merged company, Dell Technologies, was No 1 in many areas of the industry, including servers, storage, virtualisation, cloud software, security and data protection. Michael Dell said this strong position was mainly due to Dell Corp’s acquisition of #EMC, a leading player in the areas of corporate servers and virtualisation solutions. He also said his company planned to invest US$4.5 billion (nearly Bt160 billion) annually in research and development, far more than any of its competitors. In his keynote speech, Dell said a survey on some 4,000 executives on the Digital Transformation Index showed that 45 per cent feared that their businesses would be obsolete in three to five years, and 48 per cent said they had no idea what their industry would look like in three years. He said a digital future in which the world is dominated by the Internet of Things, also known as “Internet of Everything”, would turn out to be a “digital disaster” for businesses that are not well prepared. In the digital future, there will be smart cities full of driverless cars, medical treatment with nano-robots, and postal delivery by drones.
