Asia Soaring with APJ Game-Changers, Presented by SAP

We have come a long way on the highway of Digital Business Transformation. Most businesses have transitioned from the mental framework wherein the digital journey was considered a nice-to-have, to accepting it as a must-have.

As technology advances, people, business, and things are increasingly getting interconnected.

This confluence of technological connectivity is brewing new disruptive technologies, radically changing business models, and creating product and service innovations.

To survive in this new order, business organizations must embrace these disruptions.

But what does it take to become an intelligent, digital business? And what opportunities lie ahead in this era of digitization?

Join host Bonnie D. Graham as she invites you to take an additional coffee break with game-changers for our special series on how technology trends are shaking-up and shaping-up business in Asia.
