CONVERGENCE Technological convergence occurs when sets of technologies with distinct functionalities develop so that some of the functions overlap. Convergence takes place when these multiple products come together to form one product with the advantages of all of the individual technologies. The mobile phone which provides text, graphic and voice is an example of technological convergence.” (Wild, 2006)
