Successful companies are leveraging digital transformation to become more customer-centric while enhancing their operational processes to accommodate new customer behavior. 77 % of businesses state that digital transformation is their first strategic priority.

Companies are becoming more agile in order to be able to respond quickly to the opportunities and challenges which is an important step in the digital transformation. According to Gartner, 30% of organizations that are either in the beginning or in the midst of digital transformation initiatives will succeed.

Companies that have embraced digital transformation are 26% more profitable than their average industry competitors are and enjoy a 12% higher market valuation.
