Exclusive International Cartoon Contest - TechVertu –UK

 

There is no doubt that IT and Technology have dramatically transformed our personal and professional life. Businesses are highly dependent on IT, and they must stay updated with the  latest technologies to ensure their future growth. In addition, the recent outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic highlighted the vital role that IT plays for us in such an environment to stay  connected and do business as usual. 

This transformation, on the other hand, presents a wide range of new issues to businesses worldwide. Challenges such as  Data security, Cybersecurity Threats, Data Backup & Recovery, Remote Work & Remote meetings, Work from home & Efficiency, Internet
