In this context, organizational COEs are driving measurable productivity gains, while sovereignty, frontline enablement, and physical‑cognitive convergence define the next wave of enterprise value. Workforce transformation emerges as a key opportunity alongside AI scaling, as organizations expand mobile-first enablement, upskilling, and new AI-centric roles. Peculiar to the region is that sovereign AI ecosystems and regulatory frameworks are reshaping vendor strategies, while industrial and clinical convergence accelerates edge-driven innovation across EMEA's core sectors.</P> Market Presentation Tue, 25 Aug 2026 04:00:00 GMT Erica Spinoni IDC Market Glance: 中国AI营销市场概览,2Q26 https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=CHC54271726&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>迈入AI大模型普及阶段,中国营销市场正在完成从数字化向智能化的深度转型。大模型打通数据、市场洞察、内容生产、媒介投放、用户运营、营销触达全链路,在降低营销成本的同事,提升了营销的效率和成果。与此同时,消费者信息获取方式持续变革,AI对话交互催生全新流量阵地,品牌竞争延伸至 AI 知识资产布局。本IDC Market Glance报告涵盖了2026年第二季度中国AI营销市场,并展示了不同细分市场中具有代表性的活跃厂商。</P> Market Presentation Tue, 25 Aug 2026 04:00:00 GMT Lizzie Li, Wenting Xu IDC Market Glance: 中国数据库管理系统,3Q26 https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=CHC54271826&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>本IDC Market Glance报告涵盖了2026年第三季度中国数据库管理系统市场,并展示了不同细分市场中具有代表性的活跃厂商。中国数据库管理系统市场已经从早期“国产化替代驱动的高速扩张”进入“国产深化+云原生+AI原生+行业核心系统落地”的新阶段。企业不再追求单一数据库一统所有场景,转而搭建混合数据基础设施:关系型、文档、时序、图、流引擎各司其职。数据管理产品既有细分分化,也出现场景整合;厂商不再单纯比拼单一引擎性能,而是重点打造引擎互通能力。</P> Market Presentation Tue, 25 Aug 2026 04:00:00 GMT Lizzie Li, Nan Wang IDC Survey: Closing the Scope 3 Gap: Procurement and Supplier Engagement — IDC Energy Transition Survey, 2026 https://my.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=US54025126&utm_medium=rss_feed&utm_source=alert&utm_campaign=rss_syndication <P>This IDC Survey draws from the results of IDC’s 2026 <I>Energy Transition Survey</I>, which examines how large organizations across manufacturing, buildings, transportation, construction, and datacenter sectors are shaping their energy transition programs.

The market for integrated employee workspaces significantly evolved across 2025. The sector transitioned from providing largely passive and top-down communications hubs to delivering more active, AI-orchestrated digital headquarter–style resource and access portals. IEW providers spent 2025 executing across large development commitments to solidify their competitive value against bundled technology offerings. </P><P>2025 saw platforms introduce active AI assistants that moved them into active self-service layers capable of automating complex operational workflows, drafting content for internal communications, and dynamically personalizing feeds based on an employee’s role, behavioral trends, and region of employment. The market also positioned for entry into the growing frontline and deskless workforce segments while offering front-end options for companies to consolidate access points to the company’s digital ecosystem for workers.</P><P>“IEWs shifted significantly in 2025. Rather than serving as top-down bulletin boards, several market leaders matured to become AI-driven digital headquarters where employees actively source and access resources. To stay ahead of bundled technology packages, IEW providers doubled down on big development initiatives across the year.” — Zachary Chertok, senior research manager, HCM Applications and Agents at IDC</P> Market Presentation Tue, 25 Aug 2026 04:00:00 GMT Zachary Chertok
