The McKinsey Technology Trends Outlook 2025 analyzes the most important technological developments that will change the global business environment.
The focus is on 13 key trends, including artificial intelligence (AI) as a central driver of innovation, automation, specialized semiconductors, sustainability technologies, robotics and quantum computing. The analysis is based on market data on innovation, investment and talent demand. The rapid expansion of AI solutions (including “virtual employees”), the rise of autonomous systems and the growing importance of digital trust and cyber security are highlighted in particular.
This knowledge is valuable for managers in order to:
- recognize strategically relevant technologies at an early stage,
- talent and investments in a targeted manner,
- Addressing opportunities and risks – such as those arising from new forms of collaboration between humans and machines, regulatory developments or geopolitical shifts – in good time,
- and thus secure the company’s competitiveness in an increasingly technology-driven market environment.
