But when the vision for digital transformation moves into reality at non-tech companies, the processes, culture, and skills of the organizations clash with the practices of rapid software development and deployment found at start-ups and within the software industry.
In this panel, you will hear first-hand accounts of innovation failures and successes at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Mayo Clinic, and Boston's MBTA. These panelists are leading technological transformations within bureaucratic, long-running enterprises through culture-challenging projects -- find out how they have done it.
