How is a digital transformation different from a digital change

In this talk, I will explore the crucial distinction between digital change and digital transformation. While many organizations are caught up in the allure of digitizing existing processes – making them faster, cheaper, and more efficient – they often miss the essence of true transformation. This presentation will dive deep into the fundamental differences between simply updating what we already do with digital tools (digital change) and genuinely revolutionizing the way we conduct business (digital transformation). By drawing on real-life examples and real-world case studies, I will uncover… read more

Area Manager at Mia-Platform

Platform Engineering is not about tech

"What are we using for pipelines? Which infrastructure do we support? Is service mesh enabled?”. These types of questions - revolving on tech choices and implementation - currently occupy most of the conversations around platform engineering.

According to most evidence, though, these are not the only things that make a cloud-native platform successful: cultural change, communication and collaboration, reorganized processes, shared vision and roadmap - among others - play a key role in determining the success of platform transformation. If we don’t address change… read more

Women in deep tech in Europe: trends, gaps and opportunities

All Europeans need digital skills to study, work, communicate, access online public services and find trustworthy information. However, many Europeans do not have adequate digital skills. The Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI) shows that 4 out of 10 adults and every third person who works in Europe lack basic digital skills. Even worse than this, there is a very low representation of women in tech-related professions and studies, with only 1 in 6 ICT specialists and 1 in 3 science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) graduates being women.
During this panel we want to… read more

Resilience As The Ultimate Leadership Skill

Resilience in leadership positions is often overlooked or mistaken for resistance, adaptability or a strong capacity to handle problems and take up challenges. This very narrowed perception of resilience forced many people to hide their emotions, struggling alone with their personal or professional challenges and leaving no place for a diverse leadership style to bloom.
The objective of this talk is share my own experience on how I grew up more resilient while embracing every aspect of my life, my personality and my feelings.
