ABSTRACT

In the globalized scenario where technologies are developing continuously with time, these novelmethods are affecting the
business and finance in the significant way. In this chapter we are going to discuss about the major emerging technologies in the
field of entrepreneurship, application development, finance, and business.
The authors are going to start with the introduction about the business, finance, entrepreneurship and application
development, and the effect of the emerging technologies on these fields and theway in which technologies are developing from
time to time, about adoption of these technologies by industries. The changes in the technologies with special reference to developed
and developing country will also be the part of this chapter.
Moving ahead we are discussing about these technologies in prevailing businesses as well as upcoming business. Some of
the technologies we are going to discuss are Embedded Business Intelligence, Amplified Visual Presentation, Augmented Analytics,
Cloud Management.
Beside these technologies, we are going to cover about the growing automation in the finance sector such as Cloud
banking, Robotic process automation, Blockchain, Internet of things, etc.
This chapter will cover all the technologies while getting the complete knowledge about what, why, where, when and how
it is changing in the present finance and business scenario. Just like the two opposite faces of the coin, one side these emerging
technologies are boon for the business and finances then on the other side there are certain risks involved in these technologies,
which can be a great threat to our business as well as in our routine life. So, we also discuss about the potential risks associated
with these technologies.
We will end our chapter by giving our conclusion, precautions, and suggestions on these technologies.

Keywords- Business Process, Finance, Automation, Digitalization, Emerging technologies, Technical Advancement.
