Dr. Joseph Reger, Chief Technology Officer for the EMEIA region at Fujitsu, says: “Today's hyperconnected world is dramatically changing the way we live and work. Technology is being embedded in every aspect of business and society and almost everything can be networked, resulting in huge quantities of data. Fujitsu aims to empower people with the intelligence and information to make good use of that data and drive digital transformation with the help of ICT.”
Each stop on the tour is presented as a forum where customers and prospects can discuss business objectives, gain inspiration on how to balance digital transformation requirements with everyday ICT challenges, and experience demonstrations of practical solutions. Fujitsu’s goal is to demonstrate how it works with customers and partners to leverage the power of Human Centric Innovation to change the way people work, think and collaborate.
