About B2B ICT blog it-filolog.pl => convergence of IT, business and humanities
The name, assumptions and contents of the blog stem directly from my philological and editorial background with over 25 years working as an editor, translator and author in many ICT magazines and websites. My goal is to share my observations and pay readers’ attention to headline news in the ICT industry by covering innovative solutions as well as technological and market trends. The sources of information and knowledge include , reports, conferences, trade fairs and my own research. The tasks for the IT philologist encompass exploring interesting information, providing a synthesis of the most important phenomena, quoting analysts, opinion leaders, experts, producers and the media.
For whom?
I assume that the blog contents might be of interest for all those who are interested in the ICT ecosystem (vendors, providers, distributors, resellers, integrators and buyers of ICT solutions, products and services), and for whom not only technical parameters are important, but also a broader view on how to make the optimal use of ICT technologies and how they affect all aspects of life. Equally important for all those interested in the blog should be the analysis of market trends and use of ICT tools and platforms when implementing new business strategies, as well as updating their roadmaps and directions in the digital world.
