2020 Powering On Session - Digital Transformation
Powering On Virtual Conference - A #KeepConnected Event
|
Digital modernization is all around us bringing new ways to interact with people and things, informing tactical and strategic decisions made daily. With this modernization comes disruption and the need for transformation. In this session we will look at strategies that drive organizational adaptation to better utilize available technology. We will examine the impact of material changes in volume of data and discuss how the new infrastructure of data is changing to support desired business outcomes – in a language that brings technical and non-technical resources closer to the same page. We will include a perspective on the application of data and asset security as these now come hand-in-hand and are increasingly each of our responsibility. In a world that grows more connected by the minute, opportunity abounds for those that can shift their organization to securely capture and apply the value of exponentially growing data. |
