The verdict is in: every organization, regardless of sector or market, needs to embrace digital transformation to survive.
Not only have 48% of successful companies relied on hiring specialist digital talent in the wake of disruption, but those who have digital masters are 26% more profitable than their competitors.
But before spending your budget on the latest digital trend, like mobile or wearables, it’s important to note that companies who implement digital to their internal operations are more profitable than those who just indulge in the latest fashion.
Research by Dr. Didier Bonnet has revealed that conservative companies that implement digital internally through strong leadership initiatives enjoy a 9% increase in profitability, while technological “fashionistas” only gain 6% more revenue efficiency.
That’s why we’re holding a moderated debate at the 2nd annual U.K. CDO Summit on 7 October, 2015 at 30 Euston Square, addressing Chief Digital Officers need to consider the focus of their investments in digital business, titled “Digital Inside and Out.”
If you want your organization to outperform your competitors, you will not want to miss this panel!
This includes not only external investments, but also the imperative (and subsequent challenges) for organisations to focus on digital “on the inside,” and transforming the skills and behaviors of the workforce with the same rigour as currently used to transform external facing processes and products.
With seats for the Summit quickly filling up, be sure to reserve your spot before they’re all filled.
Don’t waste thousands, or even millions, of your organisation’s budget on fruitless initiatives: you need to see this panel before knowing where to place your bets when it comes to digital.

 Lis Evenstad (moderator):Management Editor Computer Weekly |
 Andrew Proctor:Head of IT & Digital West Midlands Police |
 Dave Cook:Chief Digital Officer Time Out |
