IT - Virtual Roundtable

Beyond utopia: Taking a pragmatic approach to reimagining your business

29th June 2021 | 10:00am - 11:30am CET
How do you make the right technology investments now that accelerate your move to digital?

Change is in the air. From shifts in the way we work, to new customer delivery models, to the rise in digital channels, the past 15 months have seen significant disruption to business-as-usual – and it has forced organisations to accelerate their transformation agendas like never before.

In turn, this accelerates app modernization, and the use of multiple clouds – recent research suggests organisations are currently using 5-6 cloud providers, with that number set to rise.

How can IT professionals navigate these changes without introducing new silos and additional complexity? And maintain security, governance and compliance while being increasingly responsive to the needs of the business?

The challenge is to ensure tools, platforms and services are resilient enough to adapt to fast-moving and multi-cloud environments, and flexible enough to cope with whatever else the future might bring.

Led by developments in the cloud and driven by a growing business reliance on applications, technology is a key driver of both growth and regrowth. But how do you get to your future state? Can your current infrastructure support the changes needed to reimagine your business? Are your teams equipped with the right tools and skills? And how, given current technical debt and future financial constraints, do you make pragmatic decisions now that also make sense for whatever tomorrow might bring?

Join this Meet the Boss roundtable, in partnership with VMware and AWS, to find out as we explore the real actions you can take now to drive real business advantage.
