What is a digital transformation?
Digital transformation is the integration of digital technology into all of a company’s activities. This affects our products, processes, services, culture and even our business model. More than simply digitizing existing processes, digital transformation aims to rethink the organization and the way it operates in order to take advantage of digital technologies to improve performance, competitiveness and responsiveness to market changes. Faced with this complex challenge, companies can call on the expertise of an interim management firm.

- 1
