Reinvigorating Digital Transformation
Have our digital transformation programmes really worked? Kinda. Data for Australian companies suggests the innovation/productivity paradox is alive and well: Productivity rates are declining, technology investment increasing, and digital transformation programmes are yet to hit optimal levels. Why, and what are Australian companies doing about it? This session will highlight data showing the state of technology play amongst your peers and their plans for investing in AI, the current state of technology operations (infrastructure, workloads, applications, data and security) and the top 3 factors inhibiting digital transformation programmes.
