IDC Adriatic Summit Agenda

Advances in technology are reshaping competition and value creation in every industry. Customer demand is shifting faster than many organisations can react, and as companies consider their operating paradigms for the future, formulas for past success often matter less than they ever have. How should Digital Leaders approach this challenge in 2021? Join Chris Weston from the IDC Leadership Advisory team to explore the options.

START is a project from FINA, the Financial Agency of the Government of the Republic of Croatia, which successfully transformed the process of creating limited liability companies in Croatia to one that is available completely online, reducing cost and complexity, removing bureaucracy and democratizing the founding of businesses in their country by removing many barriers to entry to company ownership. Working with multiple agencies throughout the process, this project required determination and vision to deliver a truly transformational outcome.

Delivering genuine digital transformation requires much more than technological talent, it never happens without vision, determination and energy. The IDC Digital Leader of the Year award is given to a member of our leadership community who has demonstrated all these things, in achieving outcomes for their team and organization that delight their customers and inspire their peers.

The movement to future of industry ecosystem models is happening now. The platform, sharing economy was the first step toward this open, shared way of working not only with partners from within the industry but also from other industries.

Why are industry ecosystems critical for success in the digitally transformed, disrupted world we live in today? Because the complexity of products, supply chains, digital experiences, and changing market and customer/consumer needs are too great for any one organization to address on its own.
