This year’s IT News Africa Innovation Dinner to be held on the 16th of September, 2015 for senior technology
executives in Lagos will address the many challenges faced by today’s Information
Technology (IT) leaders in Nigeria, and provide a roadmap towards delivering sustainable business, ITRealms reports.
The Africa’s technology news leader said
that Dimension Data, an ICT services and solutions provider in conjunction with VCE, an EMC Federation Company and world market leader in converged
infrastructure, will be the lead sponsor of the Dinner which has the theme: “Transform to
Better Perform: Information Technology’s role in driving
competitive advantage, customer value and business growth in an uncertain
economic environment.”
According
to information, the Dinner will also review a recent World Bank report that warns
that Nigeria will face a series of
tough challenges in 2015 and 2016. These challenges include the looming
prospect of higher borrowing costs as the West African country adapts to a new
era of low prices for oil and other key commodities.
Low oil prices, ITRealms gathered, have considerably
reduced growth in commodity-exporting countries (Angola, Nigeria), and also slowed activity in non-oil sectors. In
responding to the challenging business environment, senior managements are increasingly looking to IT to provide
innovation and transformation, reduce costs and improve business efficiency.
These challenges will require a new
vision and operating model for IT infrastructure and service delivery, one that
is far more responsive, adaptive,
scalable and efficient than yesterday’s version.
