An Overview of Industries

Technological adoption comes in many forms. In various industries, this adoption has mainly involved shared device use. Devices like mobile phones, tablets, laptops, and even large displays have been especially useful in different industries, streamlining workflows and facilitating communications.

Many niches have found use cases for various devices. Of the many industries incorporating phones, computers, and tablets into their workflows, four have grown to be heavily reliant on these devices.

These industries are none other than the following:
