We opened our app development platform to a nutrition tracker company, and over time their machine learning engine got better, and we were able to invest millions into that company. When your partners innovate with you, you can make them bigger and, in turn, you can get their services back to your company.”

Building Digital Platforms That Power Rapid Innovation
How Tech Leaders Are Using Automation To Create “Software Factories” Of The Future
The Shape Of Work To Come
Cofounder & CTO, Slack
Before the pandemic, you thought about how your headquarters presented the image of your company and not about the digital experience. Now it’s about the tools employees get, how they were onboarded remotely, whether you’ve sent them a laptop on time and whether they have to sign on 18 times a day.”

The Future Hybrid Workplace And What It Means For Company Culture
President, Technology, Visa
The way you get a multiplier effect on innovation is to ‘platformatize’ your applications. For 55 years Visa’s platform was closed, but in 2014 we started exposing our applications to API, and now we have opened all of our products. A client can create an application on top of Visa, and get the same scale, resiliency and security.”

You could be a software engineer cranking out code every day for feature enhancements, but now we’re expecting a lot more of the engineer. We want them to be testing experts as well as operational experts.”

Angelic Gibson
CTO, Priceline
We [internally] launch about a thousand features every quarter…We encourage [engineers] to experiment more. All it takes is two or three features to be home runs for our consumers.”

SVP & CIO, Autodesk
We call hybrid work ‘Flex Forward,’ and this new approach is all about the purpose of gathering. You have to define why you are asking people to gather, rather than asking them to come two days a week.”

Prakash Kota
Global CIO, HP
We’re in a world right now where trust is paramount. We have to trust that our employees are going to protect their data and do the right thing even though bad actors now see more opportunities. We have to be smarter and think about ongoing education and training.”

When we look at this wave of robotics today there are going to be a lot of applications that focus on old, mundane and monotonous tasks. Automation is going to be transformative in industries like retail and supply chain.”
