DEVO Lab
Digitization is an undeniable and irreversible trend in the business landscape. Companies find themselves deciding whether to "undergo" the effects of digitization, adapting to some “mythical” best practices, or to lead the process directly by leveraging the most advanced digital technologies and thus addressing their own business transformation.
