Dan Guna, Executive Partner
Executives’ Programs, The Gartner Group
As an IT leader, you’re continually seeking opportunities that support business innovation. Of course, at the same time, you’re evaluating the business impact of a host of highly disruptive technology trends.
The way we experience a digitally enabled world is changing. In the next 5 years, A.I. will be driving a new level of automation: in every software, service, physical asset. A.I. frees us all for more creative activities. Call this ‘the intelligent digital mesh’. Future solutions, driven by A.I., will open up a new era for digital business. So… if you’re not a disruptor in our rapidly changing digital landscape, someone else will be trying to steal your future!
June 25th, CIPS members and guests have an extraordinary opportunity to meet Dan Guna, from Gartner’s Executive Programs organization. His presentation will highlight the top technology trends for 2019. See you then. Bring a friend!
