In a Digital Transformation Study conducted by Microsoft Asia, business leaders are said to be just starting to embrace disruptions as Asia ushers in the 4th Industrial Revolution. The study shows that 86 percent of Filipino executives “believe that they need to transform to a digital business to enable future growth, and that new data insights can lead to new revenue streams for their organizations.” Nonetheless, the study also shows that there are still barriers standing in the way of digital transformation.

The Digital Disruption Forum will convene business leaders, digital pundits, and policymakers to discuss the challenges and opportunities that the 4th Industrial Revolution will bring to Philippine businesses, from SMEs to conglomerates, and chart a common strategy and action agenda in coping with the digital disruption and accelerating digital transformation.
