The next-generation global enterprise depends critically on how it connects the business to different cultures, economies, and information systems. Corporate strategies and execution plans that were once considered de rigueur among the developed world's elite are now being challenged—if not rendered irrelevant—by emerging and pioneering new entrants. While some companies resist letting go of legacy thinking, others have heeded the winds of change and stretched their wings out to soar.
In this summit you will find out how leading automotive, industrial, high tech, and aerospace and defense firms are raising the bar of innovation, execution, and performance to achieve consistent growth, predictable returns, and impassioned brand advocates across their respective ecosystems of employees, partners, customers, and shareholders.
