  • 38% of companies have undertaken digital transformation initiatives
  • Uneven maturity among companies undergoing transformation: dedicated budgets or not, initiatives led by innovation managers or not.
  • The transformation dynamic is driven by Mobility projects, IoT and the development of collaborative platforms. However, some topics are still at an early stage of development.
  • The acceleration of digital transformation relies on strong stakes: data enhancement, definition of use cases, change management, organizational impacts, adaptation of internal skills, and IS agility.
  • Business divisions are hardly involved in the definition and implementation of digital strategy; initiatives are essentially driven by General Management.
  • There is a real need for support from ESNs (digital services companies) and software publishers. However, evangelism is needed to bring the worlds of industry and startups closer together.
