The rate of innovation within the technology industry is rapidly accelerating, and we could see some transformative changes in the new year which will shape the way we live, work, and interact digitally. Here are five technology trends that Sparta predict will dominate 2024.
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
In 2024, Artificial Intelligence will be at the centre of the technology industry. From advanced machine learning algorithms to natural language processing, AI will empower industries to make smarter decision, automate tasks, and enhance user experiences. AI will become more intuitive, adaptive, and seamlessly integrated into our daily routines.
Extended Reality (XR)
Extended Reality is the umbrella term for Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR). In 2024, XR will revolutionise industries such as education, healthcare, and entertainment, offering immersive and interactive experiences.
5G Everywhere
The widespread adoption of 5G technology will create a new era of connectivity. Not only will society experience faster internet speeds on mobile devices, 5G will fuel the Internet of Things (IoT), enabling communication between devices and unlocking the full potential of smart cities, autonomous vehicles, and connected ecosystems.
Blockchain Beyond Cryptocurrency
While blockchain technology gained prominence through cryptocurrencies, its applications are far-reaching. In 2024, we’ll witness an increased integration of blockchain in various industries, enhancing security, transparency, and efficiency. From supply chain management to healthcare data sharing, blockchain will redefine trust and accountability in the digital age.
Sustainability in Technology
As the world attempts to combat environmental challenges, the technology sector will play a pivotal role in driving sustainability initiatives. With energy-efficient data centres and eco-friendly hardware design, 2024 will mark a significant shift towards more environmentally conscious practices in the tech industry.
The New Year is set to be technologically transformational, and we must embrace these trends and changes as they will not only shape the future, but also open doors to opportunities and growth.

Natasha Fasanotti has always had an interest in technology, pursuing a degree in Computer Science to turn her passion into a career. But when it came to leaving university and picking a path - the options were overwhelming, unclear, and Natasha wanted to find an opportunity that could help her specialise in something that utilised her skills through and through. Joining Sparta Global in February this year, Natasha upskilled in test automation and is now an integral part of a mult-Spartan project team operating in the public sector.
When Ekaterina (Kat) McNeill began her Psychology studies at University, she wouldn’t have predicted a future working in Data and a successful career kickstart working in the public sector – but that’s exactly what Kat has achieved. In fact, her line manager told us how Kat got to grips with complex code with little to no documentation, worked out how to access data that was previously thought inaccessible, and modelled it through a workflow. Her skills have already made an impact on site and we can’t wait to see what Kat does next…
After initially forging a career in Mechanical Engineering, Bradley Woods found himself searching for an opportunity to change careers and pursue an interest in technology. With a firm determination to find training opportunities in DevOps, Bradley joined the Sparta Academy in early 2023 and quickly secured his first role working in the public sector. Nominated for Spartan of the Month for his “dedication and hard work” that have been “instrumental in the smooth execution of high-profile project”, we spoke to Bradley about his time in tech.
