Seeking Alpha–Innovation Driven Growth

Africa, May 18, 2021

Overview

A significant majority of organizations are fundamentally changing how they do business following last year’s disruptive events. Leading organizations are increasingly pivoting towards new business models to address the disruptions in their industries, and digital technologies are playing a key role in enabling them. Mergers and acquisitions, and ecosystem partnerships are being enabled more rapidly by digital platforms. Over 52% of organizations in the African region are reviewing and exploring innovative digital business models to address new customer and operational needs for the New Normal.  

Line-of-business functions such as finance, supply chain, manufacturing, human resources, and others need to accelerate their digital transformation to address rapid business model innovation. Process reengineering and automation are key to line-of-business transformation, and initiatives on this front are accelerating – with over 70% of organizations saying that they are developing or already implementing strategies for automation.

At this event, Oracle executives and IDC analysts will discuss the latest market trends and assess the most pressing challenges. They will provide essential best-practice guidance to C-level executives from IT and other functions to enable new business models and accelerate digital transformation with cloud-based applications.
