Unlocking the Opportunities of Digital Transformation

Rapid advances in digital technologies present businesses with a once-in-a-generation opportunity to reinvent themselves by rethinking processes, building new digital-first products, identifying new business models enabled by technology, and embracing a digital-builder culture. At the same time, there are several pitfalls—technologies that do not live up to their promise, new business models that have no feasible path to profitability, the large negative externalities that these innovations place on society, and corporate cultures rife with excesses. Businesses that blindly embrace these opportunities or those that are paralyzed by the pitfalls are unlikely to survive.

Join us at our newly opened Verizon Executive Education Center at Cornell Tech to hear about our faculty’s latest thinking on building skills that prepare senior leaders to make the best of the opportunities around digital technology, avoid the associated pitfalls, and build a rigorous and thoughtful innovation culture in their organizations. Cornell Tech is Cornell University’s new Campus in Roosevelt Island, New York City, that integrates technology,  business, engineering, design, law and the arts, all in the service of training leaders for the digital age.   

Our program will run from 2:30 – 5:30, and then stay and join faculty and peers for a networking reception and tour of the Cornell Tech Campus
