The organiser of the eWorld Forum has
revealed that September 20, 2018 is the new date, reports ITRealms.
The forum, which is 9th edition
has been slated to hold the Oriental Hotel, Lekki, Lagos.
"The theme for this year’s event, which
was initially slated to hold on August 23 is: Nigeria’s Readiness for Digital
Transformation."
The theme of this year’s programme is aimed at
underscoring the need for Nigerians and the corporate entities to digitally
prepare and transform their systems and processes to achieve their stated
mission and visions.
According to the chief executive of Ajomedia
Limited, publishers of eWorld Magazine, Aaron Ukodie, the more prepared or
ready an organization or nation is, the more likely it will achieve its desired
outcome.
“Transformation is a process of profound and
radical change that orients an organization or a nation in a new direction and
takes it to an entirely different level of effectiveness”, Ukodie said.
Some of the issues that the Forum shall seek
to address are: Are new technologies imperatives for digital transformation?
What should be the focus in our digital transformation bid? What are the
manpower imperatives for organizational and national digital transformation?
And what is the difference between digitization and digitalization?
The Forum shall also discuss the requirements
for digital transformation, the roadmap for digital transformation and address
the case for Digital Readiness versus Digital Transformation and answer the
question of whether Nigeria is ready for digital transformation.
The eWorld Forum which started in 2009 has
helped the Nigerian ICT industry, to chart the direction of discuss and form
policies.
