#TechBytes S2E5: Digital Transformation

TechBytes Season 2 is a mini-series consisting of 17 bite-sized episodes, covering Matt Brown's adventures in the UK and at London Tech Week (9-16 June 2019). TechBytes unlocks powerful insights within the technology and business space.

The definition of digital transformation is the use of new and fast-changing digital technology to solve challenges and problems. It sounds simple enough, but is it?

In reality, digital transformation changes entire industries. It offers an innovative way forward through technological solutions that simplify the complicated, organise the cluttered and seamlessly automate painful manual processes.

Experts believe that more than half of today’s job roles won’t exist in ten years’ time – intelligent machines and technology will erase the need for these positions.

But don’t panic. New jobs will be created following this transformation too – we just don’t know what they are yet.

How is this possible and what are some of the endless possibilities that digital transformation promises to offer in the future?

The incredible – and fascinating – thing about digital transformation is that it’s not one thing and it cannot be defined by a single use case.

Digital transformation is an ever-evolving topic that can define your business, or, in its absence… destroy it.

In this episode of TechBytes, Brown shares his opinion on the state of digital transformation and how it enables businesses to stay relevant in an exponentially technology-driven world.
