Technology

Technology forms an essential component

IT has traditionally been viewed as a cost item. Yet, given the extent to which technology is now integrated into society, IT is taking on an increasingly important strategic role. This makes it especially important, in the current economic climate, to organise your IT – and the changes within it – as efficiently as possible.

Digital Transformation Talks - leading the digital future

As a technology leader, you play an increasingly important role in the change process and digital transformation of your organization. With change and increasingly sophisticated technology, innovation is a given. After all, ICT and innovation are closely linked. It is therefore quite obvious that technology leaders are becoming more engaged in executive-level business decisions and are sharing their visions and ideas about both technology and innovation. PwC organizes 'Digital Transformation Talks'. During these 'Talks' you have the opportunity to exchange experiences, to gain knowledge and to expand your personal network. The topics we discuss in the sessions are relevant strategic governance themes, to help you create a sustainable role - 'Leading the future of digital'.

So, are you a technology leader within your organization and do you sit on the executive board or report directly to a board member? Send an email to nl_digital_transformation_talks@pwc.com for more information.

How PwC can support you

We can help you use IT as a strategic asset, for instance by saving costs through the application of cloud computing or a (safe) ‘bring-your-own-device’ alternative. We can also provide support in more traditional issues.

• Do your IT projects often fail to deliver what users require, do they exceed budgets and deadlines?
• Are you fully dependent on your IT supplier and unable to ask critical questions or receive satisfactory answers? 
• Do you read about cybersecurity incidents – in which companies are blackmailed, reputations discredited or fines handed out – but have no idea where your organisation actually stands?
• Are regulations placing privacy-related demands on your company yet you are unsure which ones to comply with, what privacy-sensitive data your organisation has access to and whether measures need to be taken?

By providing independent advice and technical and organisational expertise, PwC will ensure you can answer questions like these. We have obtained a wealth of experience in numerous firms that have faced similar problems and we have no vested interest in the use of any specific technology or supplier.
