Digital business transformation

Digital technology has a major impact on businesses. Next year will be a significant one in terms of the digitalization of business processes around the world. Experts call it a golden period for marketplaces. E-commerce share of total global retail sales could reach 70% by the end of 2020. Online sales growth has been unprecedented, equal to the overall growth over the past five years. The success of large companies comes from the digitalization of business processes and workflows. To increase production efficiency, many firms use digital technologies. In 2021, this digital transformation trend is sure to dominate the market.
