The October 2021 business trends present a variety of notable innovations across a wide range of industries. From the launch of new AR-powered beauty experiences and virtual luxury shops to the opening of "neobanks" and news-focused streaming services -- there's no doubt that this has been a busy month in the world of business.
In terms of standout themes, there were a large number of new venture announcements and product launches within the ever-expanding IoT (Internet-of-Things) space. Sensormatic Solutions launched a sophisticated retail management tool that utilizes AI and data analytics, while Vodafone released a new intelligent monitoring system in hopes of accelerating change in the UK water industry. A standout development here, however, was tech giant Huawei's announcement regarding its newest global, "campus network" IoT solution.
Elsewhere, the film and television industry witnessed a variety of significant new developments in the realm of OTT streaming. CBS News announced the launch of 'See It Now Studios,' a major new production house that will produce documentary and news-related content. Meanwhile, VideoElephant released a new B2B channels marketplace for brands looking to capitalize on streaming.
