Implementation of new technologies

This expanded nugget builds on the foundational knowledge introduced in the previous “Adoption of New Technologies” nugget, with a specific focus on the adoption of new technologies in corporate environments or enterprise networks. The central theme of this nugget is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and complexities involved in the adoption process, particularly emphasizing the critical implementation phase.

The nugget covers several essential learning outcomes, starting with defining the potential location or specific points within an organization or network where technology adoption could occur. This includes identifying the various departments, teams or individuals that play a role in the adoption process.The nugget also defines and characterizes the multifaceted processes of technology adoption and implementation. Students gain insights into the stages and steps involved in adopting new technologies, from initial assessment and decision making to practical execution and integration of these technologies into daily operations. The challenges and considerations at each stage are explored in depth.

A key aspect of the nugget involves identifying and characterizing the ecosystem that is intrinsically involved in implementing new technologies. This ecosystem comprises the interconnected elements, such as stakeholders, partners, suppliers and regulatory bodies, that collectively influence the successful adoption and use of technology.

Throughout the nugget, the theoretical framework is complemented by practical examples that specifically relate to the digitalization of companies. These real-world cases provide students with tangible, relatable scenarios, allowing them to see how the concepts discussed can be applied in practice.In summary, this extended nugget is a comprehensive exploration of the challenges and complexities inherent in adopting new technologies in enterprise or network environments. It equips participants with the knowledge and insights needed to navigate the complexities of technology adoption and implementation and broader ecosystem dynamics, especially in the context of digital transformation in enterprises. This knowledge is essential for professionals and organizations looking to embrace and effectively leverage new technologies to improve their operations and competitiveness.
