Digital Transformation & its impact on Consumer sector in India

Digital transformation is the process of using digital technology to create new or modify existing business processes, culture, and customer experiences to meet the ever-changing business and market requirements. The disruption caused by the pandemic has shifted organizations’ focus on digital acceleration, which has trickled into critical areas of all businesses. This includes how an organization reaches & engages with its customers. Regardless of the industry, leaders across sectors are recognizing the power of digitization and are using it to empower their business.
