Speaking about Digital Transformation as an Enabler of Business Growth and Expansion, she emphasised that embracing digital transformation catalyses business growth. According to Abiola, digital technologies support organisations in their digital transformation journeys by providing the technological foundation, data-driven insights, security measures, and strategic approaches necessary to stay competitive and innovative in the digital age.

The first panel, "Good and Bad Service Management," offered valuable insights for organisations seeking to enhance their service management practices. The panellists highlighted the importance of ITSM, identified common pitfalls, and provided practical advice and expert insights for achieving optimal service management. One of the crucial takeaways from this session was the realization that great service management is a journey and not a destination. Continuous improvement, staying adaptable are key principles that organizations must follow to stay ahead in the competitive IT landscape.
