Digitalization is no longer an option, it is a basic need to sustain in the market. So it will be more difficult to be decisive about the key priorities, but the goal will be to grow the business. Last few years, throughout the industries, data has become the top driver of any decision-making and indicated top priorities will be –
• Monetization of Data/Information: Digitalization incubated various sources to enrich the corporate with the structured data and it is the time to maximize the utility of data and showcase the ROI of the recent past investment.
• Shortfall of emerging technology skill-set and talent: The penetration of cloud infrastructure-based applications is surpassing the legacy or traditional infrastructure application; engaging from ‘anywhere’ culture, emerging cyber security threats require a new level of skill-set and talent to encounter; So, getting talent and retention of talent will be the top priority for any corporate.
• Data Security and Privacy: Over time, we learnt data is a double-edged sword, especially in the hybrid work culture. So maintaining confidentiality, integrity, and availability will be super critical to protect the business.
• Next-Gen digital transformation: Next-gen digital transformation is a key focus and digital transformation remains the major initiative in 2022.
