The Digital Disruption Mash-Up
Date and time
Description
INSPIRATION FOR HIGHER EDUCATION & SOCIAL HOUSING LEADERS
With digital disruption high on most senior leaders’ agendas, questions remain about how to drive behavioural change and realise the promised return from the raft of data collected from investment in digital technologies and platforms.
The two sectors ripe for digital disruption are higher education and social housing. Each recognises opportunities to deliver a more personalised digital experience for staff, students and tenants while reducing the cost of managing assets. Yet legacy IT burdens, a lack of innovation from legacy applications and system providers, culture, and resource constraints are creating significant barriers that demand radical shifts in thinking to move forward.
At this auspicious event – sponsored by BT and Crimson – you’re invited to re-consider the opportunity and explore new avenues that can lead to a successful digital disruption strategy.
