At PwC, our human-led, tech-powered approach ensures we understand the critical role of digital skills and technology in driving economic growth. Successful digital transformation is vital in securing future opportunities and organisations across the West Midlands must continue to keep pace with disruption to unlock economic success.
We’d be delighted to host you at one of our breakfast events in October, where we will convene business leaders and technology experts to deliver market insights. The events will offer discussion and advice across cultural change, the risk landscape and the latest in AI, as you look to navigate new technology, processes and data.
Technology change and disruption are accelerating at a rapid pace and we’re seeing many clients focus on developing and nurturing digital talent to ensure they thrive in a digital era. We will be joined by Sheridan Ash from Tech She Can, Victoria Pargetter-Garner from University of Birmingham, and a panel of experts to cover:
- Key technology skills that organisations will need in the future;
- Methods used to access, develop and nurture digital talent;
- The importance of diversity in technology; and
- An introduction to Birmingham Digital Futures
Digital transformation offers immense opportunities for organisations, but knowing where to start can be complex. Whilst technology will be the enabler, successful digital transformation will require a sharp focus on cultural and mindset changes around your people, processes and data. We will be joined by Marco Amitrano, PwC UK’s Managing Partner & Head of Clients and Markets, as well as our alliance partners to cover:
- Why should you consider digital transformation and how it could benefit you;
- How to execute a successful digital transformation programme;
- The key risks that should be considered and managed; and
- Examples of good transformation.
Artificial Intelligence has made substantial strides over the last 12 months, driving huge public demand and prompting many industry observers to describe AI as one of the most significant general technologies in human history. We will be joined by Chris Oxborough, PwC Partner and UK Responsible AI leader, as well as Jack Hampson from Deeper Insights and a panel of clients who are currently actively exploring AI. This session will cover the following:
- What AI is, and how has it evolved in recent times;
- The limitations and risks of AI;
- The key opportunities that AI can present; and
- How to develop and execute a successful AI strategy.
