Digital transformation is a concern for all companies mindful of their future. But how should one go about it? How do other companies proceed? Where do African companies stand in this area? These are among the questions addressed at the workshop organised by ST Digital on the digital transformation of Congolese businesses, held on 10 March 2022.
After presenting the challenges and issues of digital transformation in Africa, our digital transformation expert, Joel NLEPE, drew on numerous examples of achievements in Central Africa as well as in West Africa, and also presented what is being done elsewhere.
The idea was to show Congolese companies present at this workshop how they can adopt a methodological approach to guide their organization along the path of digital transformation. The expert elaborated, among other things, on the methodological approach of the Hub Institute, a European think tank that has drafted the digital transformation roadmaps for most companies in the French CAC40. He also covered the methodology of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology - MIT, which provides the foundations for a solid digital transformation and durably commits the organization toward achieving its objectives. The expert also drew on his own experience in drafting digital transformation roadmaps within an African environment. These exchanges were found valuable by participants for their respective organizations.
