Organisations are changing, the rapid pace of the digital world has necessitated a fundamental shift in mindset. Digital has disintermediated markets; disrupted organisational structures, created new risks and new revenue streams and fundamentally altered the way businesses engage with their customer.
Real digital transformation is the complete reorientation of an organisation around principles and process which maximise the value of the digital age. This should be part of wholescale organisational change, from flat and collaborative organisational structures, joined up dataflows, agile process, fast decision-making, and empowered people.
This summit will contextualise the key technology trends and industry disruption amidst a backdrop of significant socio-economic upheaval. The event will also consider the role of technology leaders in driving positive transformation, exploring how we can help support operations, drive innovation, overcome challenges, and deliver tangible business benefits.
Core themes:
• Landscape: Uncertainty, Recovery, Sustainability, Remote Teams
• Process: Strategy, Structure, Optimisation, Agile, DevOps
• Design: Customer Centricity, UX, Functionality, Simplification
• Technology: Remote Tools, Data Analytics, AI, ML, RPA, Cloud
• People: Culture, Collaboration, Leadership, Diversity, Empowerment
