In addition, digital consultancy services are also expanding at a faster rate and are estimated to increase further in the coming years. This will further improve the market for cyber security, IT transformation, and social media marketing. Moreover, there is a global level expansion of several management consultancies client organisations and hence they need more refined, modern, and internationally oriented services. Such a level of globalisation is anticipated to surface a way for more collaborative ventures, investments by foreign companies, expansion of companies at an international level, and multi-national companies building their facilities in high-growth regions. Hence, globalisation in the management consultancy industry is gaining impetus owing to the speedy growth of the internet, automation of consultancy processes, and advancements in data security.
