While technology is a broad-reaching term, the Technology sector includes firms that make or distribute electronically based products or services. The opportunity for Technology firms is massive. Firms in every sector and country can invest in technology to help improve the products and services they offer or even make business operations more efficient. For example, a Financials firm may invest in a new data storage systems to back up client information. Or it could purchase faster servers to process the data and respond to clients needs more quickly. Firms may risk falling behind in the global economy if they don't periodically invest in upgrading their technology-which is why businesses are the leading spenders on technology while consumers are a distant second.
