# Five Tech Trends in Business for 2025

by Shash Anand Jan 7, 2025

Technology advancements for 2025 reveal interesting and exciting developments. That, coupled with ongoing technology priorities, shape 2025 to be a landmark year. For years, businesses integrated technology at a steady pace, almost like a dripping faucet. This year, it feels like the tap is going to be turned on and technology is going to be used in more ways and in more places than ever.

Discover the five tech trends that are expected to dominate the landscape in 2025 and how businesses plan to adopt them. 

## **1. Gesture-Based Artificial Intelligence (AI)**

An AI trend for 2025 will be its ability to provide responses based on physical movement.

Here’s a potential scenario: a [healthcare](https://soti.net/industries/healthcare/) worker tending to a patient needs to interact with the patient’s digital records during an exam or to request an imaging test, but wants to keep their hands and device sterile.

- Healthcare worker gestures to scroll through the record or request an x-ray on their device.
- The imaging request is sent along with the patient data.

As gesture-based AI continues to evolve, it will identify and act on physical commands such as thumbs-up/down, high fives and even smiles.

## **2. Emerging Hyperoptimization Strategies in Tech**

What is hyperoptimization in tech? It’s when organizations identify and automate as many process workflows as possible. Hyperautomation automates end-to-end processes without human intervention.

[Transportation and logistics (T&L)](https://soti.net/industries/transportation-and-logistics/) has many different processes integrated end to end. With the right machine learning model, an already optimal process can see incremental benefits from such as:

- Automated processes within the warehouse for digital values (weight, RFID tags, etc.).
- Logistic routing and freight capacity choices.

True hyperautomation arrives when AI independently and proactively identifies processes to automate and builds the workflows and connections to do so.

## **3. AI and Cybersecurity Strategies in 2025**

Organizations adjust their business-critical security strategies as cyberthreat complexity evolves. AI is transforming cybersecurity by protecting, detecting and responding to threats in real time. For example:

- *Simulating* attacks to test security preparedness. If an employee fails, say, a simulated phishing attack, AI offers corrective guidance.
- Detecting threats and proactively acting, such as isolating impacted systems, blocking harmful IP addresses and alerting security teams.

Then there’s predictive analytics for compliance. AI will monitor regulatory updates and send alerts of compliance changes that impact operations. AI will also automate compliance audits for faster, more accurate results and recommendations.

## **4. Spatial Computing**

The future of spatial computing in 2025 will grow to [over $200 million (USD)](https://www.statista.com/statistics/1462122/spatial-computing-market-revenue-worldwide/#:~:text=spatial%20computing%20is%20a%20blanket%20term%20for%20technologies%20that%20blend%20the%20physical%20and%20digital%20worlds.%20the%20release%20of%20apple%20vision%20pro%20shone%20a%20light%20on%20the%20market%2C%20an%20industry%20that%20was%20valued%20at%20165.3%20billion%20u.s.%20dollars%20in%202024%20and%20is%20forecast%20to%20surge%20to%20over%20200%20billion%20u.s.%20dollars%20in%202025.) as the physical and digital worlds continue to unite.

Spatial computing allows people to view digital data in physical scenarios or atop physical objects. The technology required for spatial computing – augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR) – already exists. Potential applications of spatial computing include:

- Training [field service](https://soti.net/industries/field-services/) workers on equipment and tasks without risk of damage or injury.
- Designing and testing prototypes without needing to build physical models.
- Creating immersive and interactive shopping experiences for customers in a retail environment.

## **5. Clean Technology for Enterprise Mobility**

Organizations will continue making the technology they produce or rely on more sustainable. [Samsung](https://soti.net/partners/samsung/), for example, aims to [incorporate recycled materials into its Galaxy products](https://www.samsung.com/global/sustainability/focus/products/mobile/#:~:text=Mobile-,vision%20%26%20goal,-Incorporation%20of). Meanwhile, EU legislation says [smartphones and tablets must follow eco-design requirements](https://repair.eu/news/new-eu-rules-smartphones-and-tablets-will-follow-new-ecodesign-requirements-by-june-2025/) for greater sustainability and repairability.

Organizations will adopt tools to ensure the technology they use lasts longer, such as:

- Software to [predict battery lifecycles](https://www.soti.net/resources/blog/2023/smarter-decisions-with-diagnostic-intelligence-soti-sync-23/#:~:text=Operational%20Intelligence-,Battery%20Analytics,-%3A%20SOTI%20XSight) and avoid disposing healthy, working batteries.
- Process digitization tools to eliminate paper and reduce its environmental impact.
- Printer management to lengthen lifecycles and [prevent premature discarding](https://soti.net/resources/blog/2022/discarding-the-discard-mentality-with-e-waste-and-mobile-device-recycling/#:~:text=rugged%20handhelds%20%2860%25%29-,and%20printers%20%2855%25%29,-52%25%20of%20respondents) of printers.

These efforts will minimize environmental footprints and promote technology sustainability and longevity.
