Global businesses are facing constant supply chain disruptions, and this is leading to companies accelerating their digital transformation initiatives. Global supply chains need access to a global integration environment that allows companies to simply connect once and reach anything, whether people, systems or things across their business ecosystem. Here at OpenText we call this Business to Anything integration.
At OpenText World, we’ve created two session tracks to address today’s biggest challenges facing industries of any size.
