Automation and Robotics in Company Operations - Cybersecurity Concerns - Concerns Regarding the Global Environment
The latest edition of the Marcum-Hofstra University CEO Survey indicates a shift in CEO optimism, with a decrease in those who view the business environment as "very positive." Despite this, over 41% of CEOs remain confident, staking themselves in the "positive" range, an over 5% increase from September. The overall weighted average outlook remains steady.
Economic concerns remain top of mind, with the percentage of CEOs indicating it as a top-3 concern increased to 57.6% from 49.8% in the September 2023 survey. Talent availability and the cost of materials and operations continue to have significant influences, albeit with a slight ease in the level of concern compared to earlier in the year.
