OVER HALF OF THOSE
SURVEYED ARE UNAWARE OF,
DON’T UNDERSTAND, OR DON’T KNOW

“Organisations across all industry verticals
are faced with the task of supporting the
convergence of technical and business
acumen. Digital transformation is not

transformation course series is designed to
help organisations address this challenge
and prepare for the road ahead in industry-
changing technologies such as cloud, data
analytics and Internet of Things.” n
