Event Date: – September 15th 2021
Saudi Arabia’s vision for a smart economy relies heavily on digital transformation (DX) initiatives — an area the government has long focused on – and invested in – even before the COVID-19 crisis. Emerging technologies will continue to play a critical role in the post-pandemic digital economy as IT and business leaders across the Kingdom embark on the execution phase of the landmark Vision 2030.
Saudi Arabia’s commitment to placing digitization at the core of its pandemic response has validated the country’s strategic direction, serving as a catalyst for the adoption of emerging technologies. Indeed, the crisis has spurred 42% of CIOs in the Kingdom to bring forward their DX roadmaps by a year, while another 24% are pushing ahead as planned at the beginning of 2020.
Some CIOs are also seeing an increase in their ICT budgets this year, with dedicated funding set aside for standalone DX initiatives. The IDC Saudi Arabia CIO Summit 2021 will demystify Saudi Arabia’s digital journey by analyzing the impact of next-gen technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, blockchain, and cybersecurity. It will contextualize the latest technological innovations and DX developments to help Saudi-based organizations unleash the power of digital technologies and adapt to the unprecedented realities of the post-pandemic ‘New Normal’.
