Virtual Event

The future of leading digital innovation: what's next?

Watch on-demand

For most North American organizations, the reality is that unprecedented global disruption has been a catalyst for change, accelerating transformation efforts. Organizations are recognizing the ability to rapidly innovate and develop digital products and services as a core competitive requirement, with software development and delivery capabilities at the top of corporate investment priorities for 2021. 

However, IT executives must not only evaluate technology and architectural strategies but also drive cultural transformation. Managing this change requires courageous leadership that supports high-performing teams.

To be successful, leaders must think carefully about the cultural, technology, and process design changes needed to deliver business impact and benefits. More than ever, having a cohesive and integrated IT strategy is critical to address existing IT capabilities as well as next-generation automation, hybrid and multi-cloud approaches, and cloud-native application architectures.

In this live virtual event, we will share top priorities for IT leaders and discuss how they can overcome key challenges to prepare for digital innovation excellence.
