Transformative IT
The environmental and social challenges we face in the world today require creativity and collaboration to overcome. Information technology (IT) plays a key role in addressing many of the challenges we confront. At EMC, we enable people to tackle these issues with the innovative use of IT, and are participating in the public debate. Following are just three examples.
Energy
Energy is vital to economic growth and improving standards of living. But as global demand for energy grows, so do greenhouse gas emissions which lead to climate change. IT has a role to play in reducing energy use and managing climate change.
Healthcare
Governments, healthcare providers, insurers, employers, and families are all encouraging greater adoption of IT to improve access, safety, quality, and cost control of healthcare.
Public Sector
Many public sector organizations around the world are facing declining tax bases but rising expectations for services. To serve their constituents effectively, they need the ability to collect, store, share, and retrieve information electronically.
