About the Conference

What began in 2019, as a platform created for leadership thinkers to come together and provide direction to the management-community, has now grown into the SJIM Leadership Network. It focuses on sessions and discussions upon long-term impact themes that are relevant for society and businesses. Focus areas over the previous conferences have been on renewed leadership, the challenges in sustainability, the need for innovation and business models during turbulent times.

The year 2024 conference is dedicated to digital transformation. From small to large, all businesses are future- proofing their organizations to be agile, flexible, and ready to grow with deep integration of digital technologies. These firms are cleverly entrenching advanced technologies to operate across the departments. This change entails a change in operating models, shift in mind-set and eventually modification to the entire business.

The sixth in the series of leadership conferences, the 2024 Digital Transformation Conference will focus on research papers that examine digital transformation from a historical, present and future perspectives.
