Digital Transformation has progressed from a boardroom buzzword to a critical strategic priority, but the industry is still in its infancy. According to IDC, global investment in digital transformation will grow at a compound annual rate of 17.1 percent, reaching a staggering $2.3 trillion (53 percent of all ICT spending) by 2023.
Digital transformation, in its most basic form, defines how a company utilizes technology, people and processes to provide value to its customers. In doing so, businesses aim to come up with business models that will last longer and bring in the most revenue. It all comes down to a technological rethinking. It is expected that digital platforms and data and digital intelligence will drive about 70 percent of new value creation happening in the digital economy over the next decade, paving the way for automation, artificial intelligence and machine learning to help businesses expand their reach, customer base and impact.
