Software revolution
Telecommunications, Information technology, Media & Electronics (TIME)
Software revolution
One of the front-row candidates for disruption by artificial intelligence (AI) is software product and service development. AI is already leading to a paradigm shift in aspects such as coding, architecture, security, service management and ticketing, and personalization, providing new opportunities and risks. But the implications go well beyond new products and services and improved development approaches, into how software enterprises need to transform themselves across the board, from strategy and organization through to capabilities, resources, and ways of working.

Corporatizing the speedboat
Corporatizing the speedboat
Software is becoming part of the core business for a growing number of enterprises, with ever-evolving artificial intelligence (AI) technology further boosting this trend. For this reason, traditional digital and IT organizational models that involve outsourced/remote digital factories, or accelerators, are becoming less suitable. However, bringing software development in-house is not a straightforward assignment.

HARNESSING EXTERNAL DATA SHARING TO UNLOCK TRANSFORMATIVE COLLABORATION
HARNESSING EXTERNAL DATA SHARING TO UNLOCK TRANSFORMATIVE COLLABORATION
Data is at the heart of business success, enabling better decision-making, new business models, and underpinning effective artificial intelligence (AI). Sharing data across ecosystems creates more valuable data sets and delivers strategic benefits. However, external data sharing is still new to many organizations, leading to concerns about protecting data, loss of related intellectual property (IP), and ensuring regulatory compliance. Organizations can overcome these through a combination of regulatory/legal understanding and the right strategic/technology decisions.

ORGANIZATIONAL TRANSFORMATION WITH AMM
Energy, Utilities & Resources
ORGANIZATIONAL TRANSFORMATION WITH AMM
Advanced metering management (AMM, or smart metering) is an increasingly common energy management tool in West European countries. Sweden, Spain, and Estonia have deployed smart meters nationwide, and the Netherlands and Italy are on their second generation of installation. Opportunities from dynamic pricing and demand-side management are widely acknowledged, but the transformation of distribution system operator (DSO) operating models is often overlooked.

Digital & sustainability: The new convergence
Digital & sustainability: The new convergence
Michael Majster
Digitalization and sustainability are top priorities for large companies and investors that increasingly are becoming inseparable. Digital technologies are central to company transformation and key for managing sustainability footprints. At the same time, these technologies can themselves be significant contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Since choices on either side impact the other, sustainability and digitalization decisions should be addressed together.

How data sharing is essential to deliver industry-wide transformation
How data sharing is essential to deliver industry-wide transformation
Michael Majster
Industries from energy to healthcare are facing up to transformational change. This is driven by several factors: a need for greater sustainability, reinforced by regulation; changes in consumer needs and behaviors requiring greater flexibility and customer-centricity; and technological development, especially digital and automation. Current geopolitical and economic trends affecting energy prices, supply chains and inflation are acting as a further driver.
