THE DIGITAL FUTURE OF THE SME SECTOR


The digital transformation is in full swing and presenting SMEs with ever more new challenges. Whether in regard to data management, cybersecurity or system integration: TWENTY2X answers all your questions about the digital future of your business.



In order to ensure long-term business success in the rapidly changing world of work, small and medium-sized companies in particular need to change the way they think. This makes it necessary to scrutinise and further develop traditional methods of data analytics and business management. Trends such as artificial intelligence and big data can help you make your day-to-day business even more efficient. TWENTY2X shows you how technologies can already be applied in business solutions today.



In the NEW TECH area, the focus is less on visions for the distant future and more on prompt implementation of the latest technologies and developments. SMEs and founders of startups can exchange ideas with tech decision-makers and futurologists about specific solutions and application examples. For example, you can find out how 5G is being rolled out or how AR and VR are being applied in the financial sector.
