In this era of digitization, IT is no longer just a business function, but business itself, thus making transformation a clear imperative. According to a mutual study between Forbes and Dell EMC across Europe, Middle East and Africa, 85 percent of business leaders plan to spend up to 25 percent of their 2018 enterprise budgets on IT transformation, presenting a significant market opportunity across industries[1]. To thrive in today’s digital world, organizations are inclined to implement new technologies, processes and skillsets to best address changing customer needs and drive business differentiation, innovation and growth.

In line with this, industry experts present at the Digital Transformation Conference 2018 provided demos and interactive sessions to help attendees understand the four key pillars of transformation: Digital, IT, Workforce, and Security. In addition, experts explained the transformational journey of core sectors including Healthcare, Telecom, Banking, Public Sector and Education, in order to equip organizations with the knowledge to shift the status quo and successfully embrace a digital future.
