These days it’s important for businesses to be in tune with new industry technologies. In addition to new technologies, businesses need to digitally transform to adapt to new trends including the democratization of AI and generative AI capabilities, increased focus on product and platform capitalization, sustainability, and the ever-expanding digital marketplace, amongst others.
Organizations need to quickly transform their legacy systems and offerings to not only meet the rapidly changing demands of their customers, but to stay in the game.
