COVID-19 has been a catalyst for digital transformation. It has compelled organisations, regardless of their operating model, to immediately leverage new technologies and ways of working. Organisations now need to imagine their future, and position themselves for the new reality. Accelerating digital transformation is more important than ever. Sixty-seven percent of organisations are accelerating their digital transformation strategies in the wake of COVID-19 (a commissioned study conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of KPMG, July 2020).
