Abstract

Increasingly the business success and economic opportunities steadily depend on IT-enabled capabilities and IT-driven business transformations. In today’s global digital economy, the technology and business domains are colliding forcefully than ever and new business models and growing prospects emerge. The IT, and especially emerging technologies, profoundly changes how companies strategize their technology architectures and create value and business growth as a result of IT, both within specific industries, and through industry boundaries. For the IT domain it is most important to define and establish the organization’s IT architecture underneath the enterprise architecture. A well-formulated IT architecture comprises content and processes and outlines the systemic effect of the mutually dependent technological components and processes of the enterprise architecture. The talk will explore the impact of emerging technologies on the process of aligning organizational IT architecture to the business strategy and will emphasize the driving forces intertwining IT domain with the business agility, growth and asset utilization.
