Abstract
In this paper we present our annual predictions. The first three predictions
in this report were created by Jim Johnson and The Standish Group but
were influenced by surveys and interviews of leading technology
executives, including a few from the Boston CTO Club, that sought their
views on what is on the horizon for 2021. The rest of the predictions are
direct from more than 50 executives responded, and below are some of
their thoughts. (Because the surveys were returned prior to the recent
announcements of vaccines for Covid-19, many of the replies focus
around a future vaccine, and this was taken into consideration.
