Why digital transformation is necessary and how to develop and execute a successful digital transformation strategy Even though the term 'Digital Transformation' is prevalent throughout the current business landscape, various misunderstandings and misconceptions are often attached to it. Everyone agrees that digital transformation is essential for any enterprise, but few can define what it actually means to the modern business.
