Talk: Project to Product Transformation Journey – Build a Bridge Between Business and Technology
How we succeeded to build a bridge between business and technology at Mercedes-Benz? Let us take you through our Project to Product Transformation Journey.
We are transforming our organization – shifting from a demand driven to a value- & customer-oriented working model. As cars of the future are software-driven and will be defined by their digital products, this change is a must. This also valid for all corporate functions.
