Image sourced from Pazo. Despite the rapid move towards remote work during the pandemic, even COVID-19 hasn’t been able to kill off paper in the enterprise.

This is according to Robert Crowther, CEO of FCTEC, a specialist in digitisation and electronic content management solutions. He says that despite years of hype about the paperless office, paper has endured because there are still many business processes that depend on paper being signed and scanned to comply with legislation.

Why the Data Centre Industry Needs to Embrace Renewable Energy
