The Autonomous Digital Enterprise: Thriving Amid Rapid Change

As the pandemic-induced economic shift has demonstrated, things can change quickly. In this keynote, BMC Software CTO, Ram Chakravarti, will talk about how the evolution to an Autonomous Digital Enterprise can help your business better adjust, acknowledge, and anticipate future changes caused by geopolitical, socioeconomic, and technology shifts. Those organizations that can make the evolution successfully, will capitalize on opportunities ahead of their peers because they use technology to be agile, customer centric and act on insights.

In this session, we will explore:
· New operating models – enabling disruptive and Agile practices in new areas, while still supporting traditional business models
·A Customer Centric experience that anticipates customer needs and delivers the goods and services requested at the right time, via the customer’s preferred channel
