IBM Technologies
Develop strategies to unleash business value from new, innovative technologies like cloud, and increase IT efficiency and effectiveness to drive growth across the organization
Overview
Integrating business insight with technological possibilities is essential to innovation. As time goes on, more and more organizations amend their view of technology and “IT” and acknowledge the strategic impact that technology has on all areas of the business. But the impact of technological change is expanding at an unprecedented pace. Technology strategy is a primary driver of the physical to digital transformation; the analytics that capture customer insights and drive product and brand extensions; and the envisioning of cloud-enabled business models that open the door to new revenue streams.
