 Virtual Event - Taking Place via Online Conferencing 

Today’s wave of business automation is as seismic as the personal computing revolution envisaged by Microsoft over 30 years ago. A robot for every person is the new equivalent of a computer on every desk.

With the number of companies deploying intelligent automation doubling in 2019, the robots have well and truly arrived. But are companies ready to take advantage?

The redesign and digitisation of business processes is a core yet often overlooked element of effective digital transformation. RPA is fundamentally changing how workflows are conceived, organised and delivered, enabling visible gains in productivity and with software robots becoming indispensable to the human workforce.

Change is coming fast. With automation impacting all major industries, a robot for every person is a vision that forward-thinking businesses must now adopt.
