Closer to digitalisation with Versino Projects and Wogra

The Digital Transformation Forum was successfully held for the third time by Versino Projects and Wogra Consulting in Augsburg on 27 June 2017. There were a lot of interesting things to learn about digitalisation.

Digital transformation is a topic that is now being discussed on many levels. Nevertheless, some representatives of the middle class are still finding it difficult to get to grips with the trend. Some perceive the constant references to the threat posed by potentially missing out on the trend as scaremongering. And level-headed individuals see it merely as another overhyped fad being paraded through the „digital village.“.

Closer to SMEs - closer to digitalisation

This year, the 3rd Digital Transformation Forum once again provided a platform that took the topic of digitalisation out of the „buzz corner“. How SMEs can use trends was the focus of the annual specialist event organised by Versino Projects and Wogra Consulting from Augsburg.

A key focus on how to drive digitalisation in a company quickly and securely through a combination of standard and individual software. The realisation that with today's state of technology it is possible to turn „either/or“ into „both/and“ was the conclusion of the presentation.

How to correctly calculate and control the costs associated with digitalisation projects was another helpful contribution for SMEs.

There was lively discussion on whether it made sense to focus on a few important functions, despite the overwhelming variety of functions in application software such as SAP Business One. According to some participants, the „pain point-oriented introduction of business software“ was a new and valuable suggestion.

The trend towards platforms was presented and discussed using a regional example from the care sector.

Last but not least, it provided a glimpse into the near and distant future, with topics such as the further expansion of the cloud and the use of AI in SMEs.

Discussing and networking in the name of digitalisation

The lively discussion touched on many aspects of digital transformation, both technical and societal. Alongside this „regulated“ exchange, there was also plenty of time and space to get to know each other and network.
