Digital Acceleration under COVID-19: Lessons from China
COVID-19 is having a profound impact on businesses and consumers alike. More so in China than anywhere else. China was already a digital leader before COVID-19 but the pandemic is accelerating new technology-driven solutions across the board, also for industries and people previously hesitant about embracing digitalization.
Shops continue to integrate online with offline, and retail with marketing. Stores are turning employees into online influencers to drive sales. The customer experience adds a new dimension with automated, unmanned sales outlets.
Healthcare and education services are being reinvented, powered by 5G technology. Virtual doctor consultations are being supplemented with digital diagnostic solutions such as remote X-ray scanning. The quality of homeschooling improved significantly with the introduction of livestreaming.
Chinese core industries such as transportation and chemicals are breaking down barriers by using cloud data, IoT and intelligent algorithms to analyze material usage and to increase sustainability.
So now is the time to take a closer look at the underlying factors driving technology in China. The webinar will address questions such as: How do Chinese companies leverage technology to create sophisticated user experiences? What can Danish businesses learn from China’s digital achievements? What are the main barriers for foreign businesses to achieve ‘China-style’ digitalization?
