Overview 

Digital transformation is no longer optional. We are seeing the power of digital transformation unfold as it allows our healthcare, financial, manufacturing, transportation, and even government sectors to respond to a crisis better than ever before.

Worldwide spending on digital transformation is expected to reach $2.3 trillion in 2023, according to a study that was done by the International Data Corporation. Everyone is trying to stay ahead of the curve by doing work more efficiently, serving their customers better and ideally, saving money in the process. Companies that deploy automation technologies can realize substantial performance gains and take the lead in their industries, even as their efforts contribute to economy-level increases in productivity. - McKinsey Global Institute.
