Digital transformation strategy fundamentally changes how you operate and do business. It brings about cultural change and business transformation for organizations to continually challenge the status quo and accept failures on the way.

There must be a clear problem statement, untapped opportunity, or significant business goal to initiate digital transformation. With advanced technology providers, you can improve customer experience, achieve business agility, reduce friction, increase productivity or accelerate profitability, and more. However, Digitalization is a comprehensive word having different meanings to many people. Besides, digital transformation is loaded with cloud-native technologies, software, analytics, pragmatic approach, etc., making it difficult to differentiate between enablers and drivers.
