Changing the way the world thinks about the impact of technology on business and society.

This graphic illustrates IDC's forecast for worldwide spending on digital transformation (DX) compared to non-DX spending over six semiannual forecast periods from 2019 through 2021. The graphic shows total DX spending increasing from $7.8 trillion in the first forecast period from 2019 to $10.7 trillion in the last forecast period from 2021, while non-DX spending declines from $10.6 trillion in the 2019 forecast to $9.6 trillion in the 2021 forecast. The purpose of the graphic is to show that the total DX spending forecast has overtaken the non-DX spending forecast over the six most recent forecast periods.
