WHAT’S DRIVING “DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION”?

Publishers are in process of a

fundamental shift from product focus

to customer-centricity. Seventy

three percent of all interviewees

are focused on improving their ability

to understand and serve their

consumers. Their consumers today

expect easy, immediate, inexpensive

access to content in many formats

and across many channels.

Excerpted from: Industry Leaders’ Perspective on the

Digital Transformation Journey in Publishing, March 2017
