Is your enterprise ICT infrastructure fit for purpose? Do you have the processes and capabilities in place to make complex, future-proof changes that are of vital importance but often painful to implement?
On Thursday 12 May 2016 the Guardian will host a morning panel debate and networking event bringing together cross-industry perspectives to examine the realities, challenges and opportunities of transforming your business’ technology infrastructure for the digital age.
Supported by NTT Communications, the debate will seek to answer a range of questions related to digital transformation and managing ICT infrastructure change, including:
- What are the main elements to effective digital transformation for any business? Are there sector specific issues to be aware of?
- How do you combine architecture, security and cloud services to optimise your enterprise ICT infrastructure?
- How can you challenge cultural differences and cultivate new approaches to achieve consensus across departments and functions to enable effective transformation?
- How can you manage and alleviate risk whilst dealing with disruption and transformation at scale?
