The top 5 steps for business

All over the business world, the idea of ​​proactive approval of the tools he is taking over. Often there is a sense of emergency that surrounds leadership teams as they watch what is happening in a particular sector. But how can they move forward?

One of the bright points of the Davo summit this January was a panel with Laura Rudas of Parantir and Ellinor Schrewelius of the Verdane investment firm, as well as the Asa Tamons of Ericsson and Solveigh Hieronimus, an old partner in Mickinsey.

Here are some of the mirrors that came out of that conversation about business progress with him in this exciting era.

Need for speed

Noting that “the second best time to start is now,” Tamons suggested that businesses that are not working to integrate it will be left in the dust.

“The progress that would have received 20 or 30 or 40 years can now be made much faster,” Schrewleius added, mentioning the power of he and the quantum computing.

“Speed ​​matters,” Rudas said, “so apply the best technology you can get.”

Meditating the power aid

“Get energy as an example,” Schrewelius said. “There are many (types of) progress that are taking place (with) different sources of energy. There will be massive challenges in the way you distribute and consume them … but also, computing power will actually enable to work actually. “

That sounds true when you are looking at how it affects the business too beyond the IT verticals. We have seen how, for example, the US will push forward to new nuclear power initiatives, mainly to feed the database. Terrapower is a corporate player, and then has new government directives like the preliminary act and plans to issue new nuclear energy skills.

So this is likely to be a large part of the discussion when it comes to scaling business applications.

Choose the biggest problem

Speaking to understand business trajectories, the panel discussed the need to look for the most important applications for business, and then implement the right technology and the right teams.

“You need to connect the artificial intelligence that is available to your enterprise data to generate real -time results that solve your main problems,” Rudas said. “It’s not about … producing ornamentation for your board collection. It is: What is the most difficult and bigger problem because you have this unique opportunity with him, to solve it, and that is what he should be. “

In other words, it is not just a matter of getting some kind of general solution or boiler from industry analysts as a whole – it has to do with what needs special business, and what is most challenging in that particular organization.

May be related to product development, or it may be related to managing client relationships. Maybe it’s something about buying talent. Either way, that identification process is important.

Creating ontologies

Later, Rudas also spoke about creating an ontology about the central premise for the app.

It showed the use of unstable (or less structured) data as a director.

“Creating a data foundation that enables collaborations is something I would start with,” she said.

In other words, businesses use data collection to get what they need, to aim for their great use cases, and then they apply technology and humans.

Breaking things in steps

The panel also addressed the big challenges in bite size pieces.

“It’s a leading challenge,” Hieronimus said.

This was an extra receipt, for me, from this session: it makes sense to spend initiatives to a modular way, to understand how to integrate these technologies. Even in the Cloud era, analysts (and technology journalists) were talking about how integration is important – in order for new technology to help human workers, rather than hinder their workflow processes. That deliberate thought and care will make all the difference.

Stay awake as we detail the knowledge that came out of the last events in this great year the flag for him.
