Business Revolutionaries: Digital Transformation KeynoteGreg Verdino
Greg Verdino is a leading keynote speaker on the topic of the digital transformation of business. These slides accompanied his keynote address at the 2016 CEGOC Business Transformation Summit (Lisbon, Portugal).
Greg Verdino Digital Transformation Keynote - Telia C2BGreg Verdino
Slides from my closing keynote delivered at the Telia Connect2Business customer conference in April 2016 in Stockholm. Digital transformation. Digital marketing. Platform businesses. Network economy. Innovation.
Atlas Advertising CEO Ben Wright presented "Change is the Only Constant" at the International Economic Development Council's Spring Meeting in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Content includes Kodak, Fortune 500, Greater Minneapolis, Columbus Region, and many more.
This digital world creates unprecedented opportunities for people, industries, and businesses to become digital. Learn more about how fast is evolving is digital transformation.
There is an overwhelming amount of information in the technology news about artificial intelligence (AI) and bots in the enterprise. One issue is the gap between hype and reality. The other issue covers whether AI and bots will take our jobs. Whether we are talking about bots for Atlassian's JIRA and HipChat to recent announcements by Workplace by Facebook about opening up it's Work Chat API to chat bots, AI and bots are happening. The question is how can we use them to improve how we do our job?
According to Scott Middleton, founder and CEO of Stratejos, "These bots will replace jobs but it will be the boring parts of our jobs. They'll take care of the tedious, administrative side while giving us new information and insights we don't currently have. Freeing us to do bigger, more creative things."
Middleton will join the ServiceRocket webinar to discuss:
- AI in the enterprise: Why now?
- What is an enterprise bot?
- What is possible today addressing the difference between hype and reality.
- What is possible (inevitable) tomorrow.

Abstract: Despite the strides made recently for women in business, female tech professionals continue to be outpaced by their male counterparts. According to Silicon Valley Bank’s Innovation Economy Outlook survey, less than 50 percent of technology companies have women in the C-suite or serving on the board of directors. Only 19 percent of CIO positions for Fortune 250 companies are held by women.
In fact, the gender disparity among technology professionals seems to be increasing in spite of recent gains throughout the workplace. Fewer women are joining the tech workforce and the numbers of female students studying technology is in decline—today only 18 percent of computer science majors are women, compared to 37 percent in the mid-1980s. Add in a continued wage imbalance and a high turnover rate for female tech professionals mid-career and it is clear that there is work to be done. How can we encourage more women to join the technology field and insurance technology in particular? What can be done to break down the barriers to success as a female technology professional?
SheHacks KE is a non-profit organization that was founded in 2016 by Laura Tich and Evelyn Kilel, with the aim of providing women in cybersecurity a platform to interact and help each other grow professionally in a healthy environment.
SheHacks KE is a community of Women in Cybersecurity from various backgrounds and counties in Kenya coming together to purposefully provide for women in cybersecurity an avenue of interaction, growth in knowledge and skill set and successfully pave a path for them in the cybersecurity industry.
The need to establish the initiative came about upon realization of a lack of female representation in the industry, notably in the workplace and at conferences. The objective of establishing SheHacks_KE was to provide a platform for women to interact, learn and grow together as information security learners and professionals.

M12 - Microsoft’s Venture Fund partners with Women in Cloud on #empowHERaccess initiative
1. M12 - Microsoft’s Venture Fund partners with Women in Cloud on
#empowHERaccess initiative
1888PressRelease - M12- Microsoft’s Venture Fund, today announced the extension of partnership with
Women in Cloud, an economic development organization advancing gender inclusion in technology.
Redmond, Washington:
M12- Microsoft’s Venture Fund, today announced the extension of partnership with Women in Cloud, an
economic development organization advancing gender inclusion in technology. The partnership enables the
#empowHERaccess initiative, an annual digital advocacy campaign to accelerate economic access for
women. This year, the campaign celebrates stories of pivots and perseverance in response to the COVID-19
pandemic.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, more than 2.2 million women are unemployed globally as a result
of the pandemic. A report from Kaspersky published in January found that roughly half of the 6,500 women
surveyed believe the pandemic has hurt them professionally. The #empowHERaccess campaign seeks to
raise awareness of the outsized impact of COVID-19 on women, promote stories of women’s professional
resilience—especially in technology entrepreneurship—and accelerate economic recovery.
There are four pillars to the #empowHERaccess campaign:
• A COVID-19 impact report measuring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on women technology
entrepreneurs globally
• The #empowHERaccess Awards, recognizing the work of individuals to provide stability and opportunity to
women in technology over the course of the pandemic
• Champion spotlights, a digital celebration of mentors, advisors, executives, influencers, and entrepreneurs
increasing economic access in tech
• A collective action pledge for leading global companies to commit to unlocking opportunity through
procurement and investment vehicles
2. Women in Cloud is developing the next generation of women entrepreneurs and leaders to advance gender
parity in cloud computing and the technology industry at large. M12 is committed to a more inclusive VC and
startup ecosystem, and has twice hosted the Female Founders Competition, in addition to partnership efforts
with Women in Cloud, All Raise, and Project W. Beyond the #emplowHERaccess initiative, M12 team
members will support Women in Cloud pitch competitions and connect with women B2B SaaS founders
early in their company lifecycle. M12 portfolio companies will have access to promotional opportunities for
their technology on the Women in Cloud Solution Marketplace and customer introductions via the Women in
Cloud Fortune 100 Lunch & Learn Series.
“We’re thrilled to continue our work with Women in Cloud, and expand our collaboration to the
#empowHERaccess initiative,” said M12 General Manager and Managing Director Tamara Steffens.
“Women in Cloud has consistently supported women founders building enterprise technology solutions with
their cloud accelerator. This partnership will provide new opportunities for our team to connect with and
support those incredible female founders.”
“We’re thankful for M12’s consistent support over the past several years and are excited to launch a great
collaboration with the #empowHERaccess advocacy campaign,” said Chaitra Vedullapalli, Co-founder and
President, Women in Cloud. “We have big plans to meaningfully move the needle on economic access for
women in technology, and I’m looking forward to our continued partnership.”
About Women in Cloud

net new global economic access for women entrepreneurs by 2030 through partnerships with corporations,
