No sign of a global slowdown; expect good growth for IT industry, says Hexaware
Feb 21, 2019 12:14 AM

Hexaware chairman Atul Nishar believes there is no sign of a global slowdown and hence, he says it would be fair to assume growth will continue to be good for the IT industry.

“Overall the US economy is doing very well. The growth in the economy is sustaining and as on today, there is no sign of a global slowdown that everyone is afraid of that at some point it will come ... there is no sign that it will happen in the next few months. So it would be fair to assume one-year growth should continue to be good for the industry. The companies are continuing to invest more particularly in digital technologies and the budgets next year are higher than last year. So I would believe that the growth next year for the industry would be better than last year,” he said, from the sidelines of the Nasscom India Leadership Forum.

“The entire growth today is coming because of digital technologies. The companies are investing in cloud, in analytics, in AI, in robotics ... the traditional applications - the budgets are getting cut and the new technologies - the investments are significantly higher,” he added.

Samsung launches Galaxy S10, S10+, S10e smartphones; introduces revolutionary foldable phone
Feb 20, 2019
Samsung on Thursday unveiled its flagship smartphones -- the Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10+, a cheaper Galaxy S10e and the Galaxy S10 5G at its Unpacked event at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium here after weeks of detailed leaks and rumours. The company hasn't announced the India pricing of the devices. Samsung's rival to the iPhone XR is the Galaxy S10e that doesn't have all of the features of the pricier Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10+, including the new in-screen fingerprint scanner, the advanced cameras or the curved displays. However, it does have the same brand new Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor and the most affordable price, starting at $749 (roughly Rs 53,000). The price of Galaxy S10 starts at $849 (roughly Rs 60,000) and it packs in almost all of the same features as its high-end sibling Galaxy S10+, except for a slightly smaller display and a front-facing camera with portrait mode. The South Korean tech major also unveiled the Galaxy Fold with six cameras and two batteries for $1980. This is Samsung's first truly flexible device which converts from a smartphone to a tablet and will be available on April 26. (Credits: IANS) Image Source: Reuters/AP
