Enterprise Transformation - Virtual

• Leading in an age of complexity.
• Breaking silos – Be generous and collaborate.
• Forming coalitions and empowering others.

Every industry is undergoing digital transformation. Edge plays a critical role in how organisations leverage new data sources to drive specific and differentiated business outcomes. Let’s explore how you generate immediate, essential value where speed matters by helping you Simplify your Edge.

• How IoT fits into the digital transformation journey?
• IoT is all about realising business benefits, be it cost saving, revenue increase or compliance. Can data driven intelligence alter business outcomes? The role of AI.
• Integration, security and cost continue to be top challenges when it comes to deploying IoT as per GSMA Intelligence Enterprise in Focus survey; how can we overcome them? Lesson learnt from rolling out digital transformation projects.
• What else can IoT vendors do to aid digital transformation within their customers’ business?

In the next 4 years, more than 50% of enterprise applications will be IoT-enabled. To make this digital transformation possible, enterprise networks can help solving two industry problems. First and foremost, connected objects are insecure by design, since they can’t run any security software, and therefore open doors on networks. Secondly, each IoT vendors has its own management platform. Enterprise IT cannot afford to manage such multiplicity of platforms. Only simple, automated and secure network solutions can manage the scale of the problem as well as deliver analytics and features like the tracking of assets, quality of experience or home automation.
