The current reality for many organisations is that business as usual is not working. Every organisation must evaluate how to adapt technology strategies to support business change, operational resilience, and digital response. The role of app delivery teams in responding to the current pandemic has been fundamental – not only in making sure software and critical apps continue to work, but also to support 100% remote working, staggering increases in the use of online platforms, and transforming analog to digital services at speed.

The acceptance of digital has been catapulted forward. The ability to rapidly develop digital innovation (digital products and services) is now clearly recognized as a core competitive requirement with software development and delivery capabilities now at the top of corporate investment priorities as we head into 2021. At speed, we need to work out how to operate more like a software company to be able to become both a prolific user and producer of software enabled digital products and services.

To do this we must think carefully about the organisational, technology and process design changes that need to be made that allows us to plug into value stream thinking, planning, and mapping to pinpoint business impact and benefits. More than ever, we need to have a cohesive and joined up strategy that addresses automation, hybrid-cloud, and cloud native architectures.

To discuss this and more, the Future of Innovation – C Level Round Table virtual boardroom will bring together C – suite executives from leading public and private organisation in the region to discuss how to navigate this new normal and leverage innovative solution to support their busines strategy and position their organisations for digital innovation success.
