We understand the role of high tech \u2013 quite simply, it\u2019s the engine that powers the highest levels of innovation. It\u2019s the type of world-changing technology that transforms businesses, entire markets, and even human history. For example, when invented, the steam engine was absolutely high tech. Flip phones? High tech. When these innovations are early and have yet to cross the chasm to mass adoption, we sense the advance far away. The media starts buzzing with predictions of life-altering experiences and sudden changes in how we live, work, and play. Businesses begin to both worry and get excited. We call technologies in this critical, most exciting phase \u201d<em>near-<\/em>technology\u201d or \u201cnear-tech.\u201d This stage comes with unique challenges, where even a few days\u2019 delay can be the difference between a market leader and a historical footnote.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.capgemini.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/MicrosoftTeams-image-57.jpg?w=960\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-891814 size-full\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Near-tech describes the kinds of technology that exist not in research labs but&nbsp;<em>just<\/em>&nbsp;within reach. It represents tangible possibilities \u2013 technology that can, with the right expertise and capabilities, enable real opportunities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-extraordinary-and-the-everyday-nbsp\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-black-color\"><strong>The extraordinary and the everyday<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These advancements ride in on massive waves of disruption, completely changing our global perspectives and human capabilities. The tension between extraordinary technology and everyday life drives the development of new business models and innovations. Right now, we are entering a remarkable time. Immense technological waves are cresting the horizon \u2013 generative AI, truly human robotics, individualized gene therapies, new chip manufacturing and lithography capabilities \u2013 changing the world and devastating our everyday.&nbsp;But living in the tension between the extraordinary and the every day isn\u2019t new to Capgemini \u2013 it is our legacy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Outrageous yet logical<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The greatest innovations are born out of big bets by entrepreneurs and companies willing to challenge the core assumptions surrounding us. Software must run on-premises\u2026 enter SaaS. It\u2019s only a phone\u2026 enter the Smart Phone. The common characteristic of transformative technologies is that they first fundamentally disrupt our&nbsp;<em>mindset<\/em>, then&nbsp;disrupt our infrastructure, manufacturing, supply chains, business models, and security. They may seem like outrageous ideas at first, but eventually, something tips and the disruption becomes normalized: This is the future. And the wave begins. We believe deeply that these innovations are outrageous and, at the same time, logical, and we help bring them to the world. It is our mindset of possibility that makes us different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>We are builders<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Capgemini High Tech recognizes that success is embracing and exploiting near-tech. It\u2019s about bringing together talent and technology to help organizations reach near-tech faster. However demanding or specific the challenge might be, an expert can help solve it. We proudly act as a comprehensive partner for High Tech clients looking to leverage near-tech to transform their business. But what makes us unique is that we don\u2019t just define a company\u2019s future but also help them build it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Making connections<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perhaps the most essential tool for any business seeking new opportunities through high tech is connection \u2013 connections between knowledge, capability, and technologies. By drawing on broad networks of deep expertise, companies can use high tech to enter industries and markets that were otherwise unobtainable until now. We enable our clients to connect with the right semiconductor manufacturing partner, the right business strategy, the right design and UX partner, the right production and shipping plan, and the right data and software security solution. We bring the connections to make near-tech real.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Capgemini High Tech serves the tangible possibilities that are just within reach \u2013 decisions and actions that matter now. Whether through connections, living in the gap between the extraordinary and everyday, building real solutions, or embracing the outrageous, we are the partner for near-tech.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> Let\u2019s innovate the near technology of your industry together.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow
