      EMSGM211 Master Thesis 20

To maintain a competitive position, the company must constantly adapt to technological developments and market changes.

This involves not only adapting to digital technologies, but also a process of constant improvement to optimize its operation and efficiency in the face of customer needs.

Artificial intelligence, virtual reality, cloud computing, blockchain... digital technologies are numerous and can provide solutions for all company departments: production, logistics, finance, human resources management, marketing, sales...

As a Digital Business Transformation graduate, you propose and participate in the implementation of these digital solutions. This process may involve reorganization and a change in corporate culture. Innovation, creativity, flexibility and collaboration are then key to the success of this process; all skills that make up the richness of your managerial profile.
