The IT industry would see “substantial growth” coming from the disruptive technology platforms in the coming days, R. Chandrasekaran, Vice-Chairman, Nasscom and Group Chief Executive, Tech and Operations, Cognizant Technology Solutions, said here on Friday.
According to him, the SMAC (social, mobile, analytics and cloud) platform will play a significant role in driving growth of the entire industry.
“I am very high on technology platforms like SMAC. Investments are going to be substantially higher on these technologies,” Chandrasekaran said here at a panel discussion as part of a Nasscom seminar – Emergeout Kolkata 2013.
He added that such a trend could be attributed to the fact that more and more companies are exploring newer options to attract customers by using social (networking), mobile and other online platforms.
