About The Event
This panel will be the first in a multi-part series on digital transformation within private companies. The next decade is predicted to bring tremendous opportunities and challenges to businesses and society, and technology tools will be deployed to take advantage and manage this innovation.
Armed with access to new technologies including Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), blockchain, and robotics process automation (RPA), traditional industries are reimagining technological solutions to business challenges to reduce cost, increase controls, delight customers, and deliver new products and services.
This first panel will dive deeply on IOT. Our panelists will share insights on how and where IOT is being deployed within their business processes and customer/user experience. They will also discuss decision making and governance around IOT investments and how the IOT-generated data is stored, managed, and retained.
Directors who recognize their responsibilities in advising and governing management’s successful implementation of IOT transformation initiatives will want to actively assess their oversight role. Those who should attend would be current and/or aspiring private company directors seeking to learn more about IOT and other digital transformation activities and the opportunities and/or risks they present in implementation and governance.
Our experts for this first panel include board directors, C-Suite executives, and private investors representing different non-traditional industries, such as food, health care, and manufacturing, where technology transformation often comes at a slower pace than in traditional tech firms.
Deepak Ayyagari, Partner at PwC and IOT expert, will moderate a discussion which will include Ann Raider, Independent Director of Gordon’s Food; Nan-Wei Gong, CEO at FIGURE8 and Michael Greeley, Co-Founder and General Partner at Flare Capital Partners.
