Industry analyst IDC said that the rise of ultra-fast broadband, businesses moving to online services and increasing use of mobile devices will lead to improvements in the sectors, which could be good news for those seeking IT jobs.
The organisation pointed out that the past year has seen firms place an emphasis on survival through the recession and controlling their costs, but 2010 will give them the chance to cautiously increase their investment in IT.
Ullrich Loeffler, an IT expert with the group, commented: 'Online services known as cloud, the new capability offered by mobile broadband and advanced customer-care solutions will fuel new activity and present a number of transformational tipping points.'
Recent research by IT industry analyst Gartner revealed that 62 per cent of chief executives think IT-enabled changes will be a critical part of their firm's post-recession strategy.
In addition, 43 per cent of companies plan to increase their investment in IT over the coming months.
