While speaking about 'Connectivity in Digital Transformation', Mahdi Khorram, Product Development and Marketing Director, GBI mentioned that, "When we talk about banking or financial applications, latency is really significant. I hear people talk about blockchain, crypto, stock market, and so on, a lot of finance industries pertains to, but latency is very crucial to make sure the services reach the end user very quickly."

"In this era of digitalization, space and culture do not have such an impact on the employees as technology does," said Karthik Ananda Rao, Chief Technical Evangelist, Manage Engine, A Division of Zoho Corp Inc, in his tech talk on the topic," Enhancing Employee Experience through Cloud IT Management.

Santiago Banales Lopez, Managing Director, Iberdrola Innovation Middle East spoke at length on 'Cloud and Energy Transition: The Case of Iberdrola'.

In addition to other panel discussions, the event featured one on the subject of 'Cloud - A Brighter Future: Exploring Strategies to Deliver Cloud Transformation,' which was chaired by Belal Hafnawi.

"The last three years have crunched every budget and pushed every strategy to ensure fast adoption of digitization. Businesses that have not yet gone digital may not last much longer.
