Global Enterprise Customer Insights ~
An Analysis of 2021 IT Investment Priorities
A multitude of carefully laid technology plans were blown off course in 2020, driving IT investments in unforeseen directions — mostly toward accelerated digital transformation. While there is still much uncertainty about what 2021 and beyond hold in store, now is the time to get an understanding about what IT investment priorities are likely to be going forward.
This round table discussion with industry experts will be introduced by Jeremiah Caron, Global Head of Research & Analysis – Technology Group for independent consulting firm GlobalData. He will first present findings from GlobalData’s “hot off the press” 2021 research on thousands of Enterprise IT budget holders, and then focus on three key topics for further discussion.
The discussion will embrace the vital topic of cybercrime, and consider how SD-WAN strategies have changed, how multi-cloud has accelerated, and the effects of these trends on underlying networks. The final segment will be more open-ended, beginning with latest developments in AI and automation across the network.
