Embedded systems. The combination of hardware, software, price, speed and compactness is upon us in every sector. From Defence to Consumer Electronics; Medical & Molecular Diagnostics; Information, Hardware & Software, Technology, Intelligence, Knowledge & Content Management; have embedded requirements at any given time.

In the Defence Sector, while only an army, navy or air force is likely to buy defence products; off-shoot applications, IT products, knowledge bases, intelligence, security, peace-time needs; all require Venture Capital Support; technical due-diligence; Marketing communications; End-user training and a host of related investments and consequent ROI Management.

In every other sector; the effect of Embedded Systems whether; BPO; SCM; CRM; PLM; ERP; BPR; MRO or any other IT or human endeavour is under-stated and under-estimated by any account. We are talking TRILLIONS of US $'s.
