Digital Business Masterclass:

Using Data analytics, Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence approaches to develop company strategy

To whom:

21st century business leaders who are responsible for the future development of their business and organization.

Challenge:

Life is changing. Old goes away. New comes and takes over. Business is also changing. From the original Fortune 500 list of 1955, there are currently only 60 companies in it.

In search of directions for progress, we are increasingly finding out: "Digitize or Die". Digitization can improve Customer service, Productivity, Business scaling and other important aspects. However, it also brings new challenges.

What benefits can digitization bring? How much does it cost? Are we able to implement digitization? What data do we already have and what to do with it? How data usage improves business decisions? How to optimize customer service? How to visualize data? How to build the enterprise's digital culture? How to successfully implement digitization projects? How to build and renew strategies? Why "Digitize or Die"?

Answers to these and other questions you will find in the Digital Business Masterclass.

Goals:

N.B. This Masterclass is created for the business executives, not data analysts!

To help business owners and managers to:

See the new possibilities of the digital age;
Define precise tasks for digital and IT teams;
Evaluate realistically the contribution made by digital and IT teams.

Gains:
