IDC META “With digital-first strategies having become firmly established across the Middle East over the last few years, organizations in the region are now increasingly focused on deriving a larger share of their revenues from digital products, services, channels, and platforms. Indeed, 50 percent of the CIOs recently surveyed by IDC across the Middle East said that this is now a major priority for their organizations. In order to thrive in this new world, a digital-first mindset is essential, coupled with a vision to build a data-driven organization that is ingrained with a culture of innovation.”
