Driving connected experiences at the digital workplace has become a top IT priority for enterprises, with the ever-increasing need to ensure seamless information sharing across people, devices, and functions to improve business performance and employee experience. At the same time, driving connected experiences requires enterprises to redefine their approaches toward people, processes, and technologies. In this report, we explore the technological aspect of the digital workplace and how various start-up service providers are helping enterprises achieve connected experiences.
Start-ups have started playing a key role in connected experience by focusing on both the employee’s user and human attributes to drive superior user experience and innovation.
