The Center of Tomorrow

As the global economy continues to recover, businesses are no longer focused only on efficiency or streamlining for survival. They have set their goals on growth. Growth comes from new products and services, new business models, new markets, new consumers—and where possible—attracting business from the competition. Due to the technology implications of scale and volume, each of these areas of growth requires the convergence of business and technology within the organization in order to become a digital enterprise.
