The technology sector
Technology is part of all areas of personal and professional life of individuals and companies. Moreover, there is no longer any sector or industry in society that does not include technological tools to develop its activity. The truth is that technology makes people's lives easier and improves the productivity and competitiveness of companies.
This sector was born 40 years ago and, since then, it has not stopped growing, reaching practically all corners of the world and all social, political and economic spheres. It is a sector characterized by constant evolution, where innovation acts as a lever for digital transformation, in order to renew products, services and production processes.
Technology affects all fields of knowledge in society and establishes a space of shared knowledge that is updated in increasingly shorter periods of time. Therefore, innovation is essential within this sector to generate substantial changes in the established statuses.
The sub-sector of information and communication technologies (ICT) is the most powerful within the whole main sector. In turn, within this sector, four different types of activities coexist: manufacturing, commerce, IT and telecommunications activities, and the digital content industry.
Likewise, in other areas, technology is configured as an element of development and empowerment. In this sense, it improves the industrial sectors (food, automotive); it promotes health care and research; it reformulates the production and design processes in fashion; it interferes in the hotel industry; in the service to households and companies; in transport and logistics; in construction and real estate; in laboratories; and in engineering companies, among others.
Sustainable technology
All these innovations and developments cannot take place without taking care of the environment. For this reason, sustainable technological systems have been implemented for some years now, which help to reduce waste and to maintain, and even increase, efficiency in activities.
Likewise, the systems and devices produced within the technology industry must be created with the greatest possible respect for the environment. Professionals in the sector have understood that technology improves the day-to-day life of societies, but also that it helps to raise awareness. Therefore, it is configured as a tool for social transformation, starting with education and ending with care for the environment.
