Digital Enterprise Architecture (EA) has been placed at the heart of innovation to help develop and orchestrate the move of innovation into the operating model so that organisations are able to remain laser-focused on achieving their competitive advantage.

Enterprise Architecture (EA) has shifted its focus to strategy planning. By 2023, Gartner predicted 60% of EA practices will integrate digitalisation into their business and operating models to support strategy development and execution. 60% of organisations will depend on EA’s role to lead the business approach to digital innovation.
Organisations are required to stay abreast of emerging technologies, trends and disruption and lead digital transformation or innovation. Digital EA has been placed at the heart of innovation to help plan, design and orchestrate the move of an innovation into the operating model and balance stakeholder perspectives, so that everyone in an organisation will stay laser-focused on achieving the targeted business outcomes.
The virtual Symposium will deliberate on the following:
- Explore ways to accelerate Organisation-wide Transformation and Digital Business Models
- Learn the EA Best Practices for Digital Innovation
- Gain insights from thought leaders on their Success Stories for Digitalisation
- Generate concrete business value by adopting EA Framework across the organisation
