2022 Hype Cycles: Driving Innovation Amid Economic Uncertainty

Explore where and what to innovate, especially to drive growth or operational excellence

Analyst(s):Frances Karamouzis, Jan-Martin Lowendahl

Gartner’s 2022 Hype Cycles enable CIOs and IT leadersto explore nascent, emerging, mainstream and mature technologies, and integrate them into their technology roadmap. However, continued uncertainty across many variables (economic, sovereignty, political implications, continued war in Ukraine, etc.) makes these decisions more difficult. Each of these concerns manifests very differently across industries.

CIOs often struggle to identify where to innovate, what type of innovation is relevant and what technologies to consider and economic uncertainty makes it even more difficult.
