After that, Professor Mateo started to gave his lecture. He stressed that the world has always changing constantly, but the change now is happening in an incredible pace. The technology revolution has shaped a new kind of consumers behavior, not only the product that they want, but how they can acquire it. He further explained how a traditional company could successfully transform into a modern company in four steps: (1) ambitious mindset to digital transformation, (2) organization culture change, (2) data driven, and (4) implementing business model through internal and external ecosystems.

Prof. Mateo closed his lecture by stating technology is only the enabler for change. What matters is the people and the society. Technology is changing fast, but people changes slowly. For that reason, we have to improve our self to adapt to current and future challenges. (iofeb/RKF)
