Alan Nance gave a presentation about the urgent need for digital transformation. He made three key points: 1) Companies need a strategy for the digital age, not just a digital strategy, 2) Data is the core to future success, and it needs to be liquefied across the enterprise. 3) Companies are running out of time and must dramatically reduce costs while increasing speed and agility. Nance recommended three actions: liquefying all data in a new architecture, accelerating everything, and rethinking IT strategies to focus on outcomes and value delivery.
