We’ve developed a taxonomy that groups activities by over-arching area (as per the table below), with examples ranging across specialist domains (such as GreenTech, AgriTech, FoodTech, FinTech, RegTech, PropTech, etc.). However, we’re not interested in the niche technologies per se (e.g., how low-carbon concrete for construction projects is actually manufactured, or the machinery deployed in vertical farms, etc.). Rather, our focus is on the contributions a range of emerging and enabling technologies are making as essential tools for those working towards a more (environmentally) sustainable world.
In defining what we count as ‘emerging and enabling technologies’ in sustainability use cases, we’ve expanded upon the TechMarketView software and IT services (SITS) ‘New’ technology definition used in our proprietary Digital Evolution Model (DEM) and added some with more hardware overtones (such as 5G, 3D-printing, robotics)—see below.
Here's an example of an entry from Q4 2022
