Augmented reality, virtual reality, mixed reality, internet of things, and artificial intelligence are only the latest wave of technologies shaping retail. But as the pace of consumerization increases, retailers need a better way to adapt, integrate, and deploy innovation. They also require an agile architecture that helps them to stay relevant while managing upcoming challenges.
This thought leadership piece is based on a panel discussion at a recent CDOTrends roundtable sponsored by Equinix. It sees digital and IT leaders from Hong Kong's leading retailers discuss their challenges, future trends, and why being agile is becoming a competitive edge for retailers. It also argues why digital transformation in retail should begin with interconnection.
