The Connected Workplace Project: Factors affecting the uptake of wireless technology in Canadian Business

The workplace remains a largely underdeveloped market for wireless service providers. This project will focus on the use of wireless technologies in the Canadian work environment. The overall purpose is to better understand the obstacles to technology adoption in the workplace, and offer actionable recommendations on how to mitigate them. The work will be done in conjunction with a team from Rogers Communication. The student intern will be charged with conducting a literature review of this field, and drafting a report that will be delivered to Rogers. Working with the Rogers team, the intern will explore why previous efforts to expand wireless adoption in the workplace have fallen short, and offer best practices suggestions based upon contemporary literature. The partner organization will gain valuable insight to expanding market share in the Canadian workplace.
