Achieving growth in unprecedented times
“For most organisations, the business strategy is their digital strategy,” Joe Craparotta, ANZ VP of Secure Power at APC by Schneider Electric, said in an exclusive interview with Nextgen and Data#3. Businesses have been forced to rapidly innovate this year, and those that have taken a leadership position on innovation are now in a much better position for the long term.
The channel’s role in delivering innovation beyond COVID
While 2020 has been a highly disrupted and unpredictable year, businesses are proving to be resilient, dynamic, adaptable and see opportunity in the recovery beyond COVID-19.

Capitalising on this opportunity means digital transformation, and there is a big role for the channel to play in facilitating this.
