This article presents Deloitte’s views on the current state and likely future implications of convergence across the Technology, Media and Telecommunications (TMT) industries. It has been developed to help our clients frame their business thinking and strategy, by providing a longrange view of the way in which their markets might develop in the future. In doing so, the report addresses three key questions:

  • What are the underlying trends driving continued convergence?
  • How will convergence drive the evolution of the TMT sector?
  • What are the critical success factors for TMT companies for the future?

In the late 1990s convergence in the Technology, Media and Telecommunications (TMT) sectors was the hot topic.
