Gartner TOP 10 strategic technology trends for 2025

#BLOG

What awaits us?

Every year, the technology world moves faster. New ideas become reality, and businesses must keep up if they want to stay competitive. In this article, you will learn what will be trending in the context of technological trends.


The future is here: top technology trends for 2025

Gartner, one of the most trusted research companies in the world, has shared its Top Technology Trends for 2025. These trends show us where the digital world is going and what we should expect in the near future. In this article, we will explore some of the key trends Gartner highlights for 2025. Don’t worry – we will keep it simple, clear, and easy to follow. Even if you are not a tech expert, these trends are important for your business and daily life.


1. AI trust, risk, and security management (AI TRiSM)

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere now – from online shops to customer service chatbots. But how can we be sure that AI is working fairly and safely?

This is where AI TRiSM comes in. It stands for Trust, Risk, and Security Management. In simple words, it’s about making AI more reliable, ethical, and secure. Companies will focus on protecting their AI systems from mistakes and cyberattacks. They will also make sure AI decisions are transparent and not biased.

For businesses, this means that using AI will not only be about innovation. It will also be about building trust with customers and protecting sensitive data.


2. Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM)

  • Cybersecurity is becoming more important than ever. Hackers are getting smarter, and attacks are happening more often. Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) is a new way to stay ahead of cyber threats.

    Instead of checking for problems once or twice a year, CTEM is about constantly testing and improving security systems. It helps companies find weak spots before hackers do. This approach is becoming a must-have for businesses that want to avoid costly cyber incidents.

    If your company hasn’t thought about continuous security checks, 2025 might be the year to start.


3. Machine customers

Imagine this: your fridge notices you are out of milk and orders more automatically. Or your car schedules its own service. This is the idea of machine customers – smart devices that make purchases or decisions on behalf of humans.

In the future, machines will become important “customers.” They will compare products, manage payments, and even negotiate prices. For companies, this means new types of clients to serve and new ways to design products and services.

If your business sells online, it may soon have to impress not only humans but also machines.


4. Platform engineering

  • Building software is getting more complex. Developers need better tools and environments to create and manage applications easily. This is where platform engineering helps.

    Platform engineering creates shared platforms that give development teams everything they need to work faster and better. These platforms are like digital toolkits, making sure everyone uses the best practices, tools, and processes.

    For companies, platform engineering can save time, reduce mistakes, and improve the quality of digital products.


5. Sustainable technology

Climate change and energy costs are global concerns. That’s why sustainable technology is becoming a priority. This means creating and using technology that is better for the planet.

Companies are now looking at how to reduce the energy their systems use, recycle old equipment, and design software that needs fewer resources. Sustainable technology is not only good for the environment – it can also lower costs and attract customers who care about green solutions.

In 2025, businesses that invest in eco-friendly technology will stand out from the competition.


6. Agentic AI

Imagine Artificial Intelligence that doesn’t just follow commands, but can actually plan and take action on its own. This is called Agentic AI. These AI systems work like helpful assistants that understand goals, make decisions, and complete tasks without constant human supervision.

For businesses, Agentic AI can save time by handling repetitive tasks or even running full processes. This means teams can focus on creativity and strategy while AI manages the routine work. However, companies will need to make sure these systems are trustworthy, safe, and making the right decisions.


7. Post-quantum cryptography

Quantum computers are coming, and they are very powerful. So powerful, in fact, that they could break the encryption we use today to keep data safe. This is why Post-Quantum Cryptography is so important.

This new type of encryption is designed to protect sensitive information, even against quantum attacks. Businesses that work with confidential data – like financial details or medical records – need to start preparing for this future now. By updating security systems early, companies can keep their information safe in the long term.


8. Spatial Computing

Spatial Computing is all about blending the digital world with the real world. You might already know some examples: augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), or 3D mapping. Spatial computing takes these ideas further by helping devices understand spaces and objects in real time.

Think about apps that guide you inside large buildings, or smart glasses that give you information about the world around you. For businesses, this can create new ways to interact with customers, train employees, and design products.


9. Developer Experience (DevX)

Happy developers build better products. That’s the idea behind Developer Experience (DevX). This trend focuses on giving developers the right tools, clear processes, and supportive environments so they can do their best work.

When companies invest in DevX, they speed up innovation and reduce mistakes. This includes improving internal platforms, making workflows easier, and removing barriers that slow down development teams. In short, better experiences for developers lead to better experiences for customers.


10. Industry cloud platforms

Many industries have special needs. For example, healthcare, finance, or manufacturing all follow different rules and require unique solutions. Industry Cloud Platforms are cloud services designed specifically for these sectors.

These platforms provide ready-made tools, apps, and services tailored to each industry’s challenges. They help businesses move faster, stay compliant, and build custom solutions without starting from scratch. In 2025, more companies will turn to industry clouds to stay competitive and meet their sector’s demands.


Why Do These Trends Matter?

Technology is not slowing down. The companies that succeed in the future will be the ones that follow these trends and adapt early. Here are a few reasons why these trends are important for everyone:

  • Stronger security protects businesses and customers from growing cyber threats.
  • Trusted AI builds better relationships with users.
  • Machine customers are becoming a real market to pay attention to.
  • Smart platforms help teams work more efficiently.
  • Sustainable solutions save money and help the planet.

Whether your business is big or small, these trends will affect you. Planning for them now will help you stay ahead and grow.
