Dublin, June 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "How Mobile POS is Reshaping Retail Journeys - mPOS Market Study - 2025" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This report looks at the Mobile POS (mPOS) Market in North America, including how many devices were shipped for the last 3 years. It also includes how many are currently installed, and what the forecast is for new shipments in the next several years. While this is not market share by vendor, it does include the types of devices offered by HP, Apple, Oracle, Samsung and others.
Going forward, we expect the story to change a bit, as Tier I retailers have begun to embrace mPOS in a much bigger way with new customer journeys. This phase started with COVID, however, even the largest retailers are considering doing mobile first design for the POS so they only have one app regardless of the client. This is also leading many retailers to consider using mobile POS devices that can be fixed or mobile to be used in their stores.
There is a new level of maturity in systems and decisions for enterprise retailers. While consumer devices might look cooler, the need for enterprise class wi-fi and security with the explosion of IoT devices deployed has forced retailers to grow up. Also, that premium between enterprise class and consumer class is shrinking bringing many of these decisions to the forefront of CIO offices going forward. The customer of today and tomorrow are mobile and multi-channel causing retailers to adjust accordingly.
This research looks at the current state of Mobile POS in North America, the adoption rates of the various retail verticals, and the shipment and installed base details by type of device (Rugged Handheld, Non-Rugged Handheld, and Tablets). It includes market sizing, trends, and forecasts through 2029.

An Old, Yet New, Look At Diversity In The Workplace
Happy multigenerational people having fun sitting on grass in a public park Diversity, in the last few years, has been transformed from a prominent social, demographic, and organizational issue into a political football. I believe that's because we're not looking at it in its fullest sense. We're looking at it with too much emphasis on statistics and not enough concern for what the data is telling us. Data, we all know, is left-brain food; it is linear, logical, and can be analyzed by entry-level recent graduates. Now, even these young employees are threatened by AI. On the other hand, to see the big picture, we need to flip over to our creative right brains where we connect dots, recognize patterns, and derive meaning. That must be what Malcolm Forbes did when he concluded long ago that 'Diversity is the art of thinking independently together.' He made no mention here of adding up the percentages of people from various groups; rather, in a holistic sense, he taught us to think at a higher level. In the end, isn't that what we want? Isn't that the ultimate result we seek? A look at some recent studies supports that hypothesis. Studies strongly support the conclusion that organizations embracing a greater diversity in the workplace outperform the competition as well as market index indicators, while delivering higher profits. They also tend to nurture employee' roles and careers, and enhance stakeholder value. Research by the Boston Consulting Group in 2024 revealed that 'increasing the diversity of leadership teams yielded 19% more revenue from innovation compared to less diverse peers.' Actively constructing a workforce that includes people with a whole range of different characteristics – gender, ethnic background, religion, age, sexual orientation, education level, race, socioeconomic status – in fact, anything that might give that person a different outlook on life, is evidently what Forbes was seeing. Organizations that look like that were studied by Kurt Lewin (1890-1947), the father of social psychology. The more diverse the makeup of a team, found Lewin, the more likely the members were to experience process gain in perspective, synthesis, and clarity. Indeed, this facilitates changes in values, attitude, and behavior needed to implement good decisions. Process gain includes accessing many points of view, fostering a more creative environment, achieving higher productivity, recruiting and retaining the best staff, and opening up new markets. Among companies in the tech sector that lead in diversity and performance, HP stands out with a board comprised of 46% women and 46% minorities. Additionally, 67% of its new hires in the U.S. are women, minorities, veterans, or people with disabilities. And Cisco has maintained its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). It has implemented initiatives like annual pay parity analyses and flexible work policies, contributing to its recognition as a European Diversity Leader. Evidence emphatically suggests that diversity leads to increased innovation, better employee retention, and improved market responsiveness, all contributing to a competitive edge in the marketplace. Or does independent thinking, in Malcolm Forbes' view, produce the diversity effect we want?

Online publishers are facing a chatbot calamity. AI tools from companies like Google and OpenAI are replacing traditional web searches, starving news sites of traffic. Similarweb data reported by The Wall Street Journal shows that HuffPost 's organic search traffic fell by just over half in the past three years, and by nearly that much at The Washington Post. Business Insider, which laid off 21 percent of its staff last month, also saw its organic search traffic decline by 55 percent between April 2022-2025 according to Similarweb.
