COVID-19 and its Impact on Today’s and Tomorrow’s IT industry

Hi Guys, Today we are talking about the impact of COVID-19 on the IT industry. COVID – 19 is a disease which has its origin in China and was identified there as early as November 2019 and till date has killed hundreds of thousands of people but as sad this news is, it has a positive impact on the IT industries of the world, how? Let’s discuss. Early stages of the virus Even though the virus started spreading in late 2019 it was only declared a pandemic in March of 2020, and as it was declared, so the order for quarantine for infected and lockdown for the general population followed. Millions of people now stayed at home for the longest time in their lifetimes, but as one would expect they still had to work, so most of the IT companies made their employees work from home which was at first not as effective as being physically present at their respective offices but was better than not working at all. Little by little as the workers of IT industries were getting the hang of it all (most) other companies followed their footsteps and also introduced ‘work from home’. Even though now it seems to be the only natural thing to do, it was met with reluctant views at first and these reluctant views were not unfounded but rather a reality for most people, for example, it was thought that since a huge population of workers are older than the first mobile phone made in India i.e. July 31 1995; it would be very difficult for them to adopt the technology of video conferencing and video calling and being effective at work at the same time; which if you think about is true, and it did pose a lot of problem at the beginning, but as they say "what is never changing is change itself" and people in a very short amount of time embraced this change[1] and were almost back to their daily schedule of working. But there was one change that didn’t go unnoticed from the views of people which was the comfortability of this ‘work from home’, even though they were practically present at work during their video calls and conferences they were physically present in the comforts of their homes which was a bigger boon than the bane of less effectiveness so much so that Google extended this work from home order till 2021 even if the pandemic is to be cured [2]. Then in late April 2020, people of all ages and races who were daily office goers and only used their tech (mobile phones and internet) occasionally and for entertainment, now use it for working and for productivity, in general, not just in some parts of the world but everywhere.
