2. What can make life easier for CXO's for quick and intelligent decision making?
3. How can we have proactive visibility in to the digital enterprise?
4. How time to market can be further shortened?
5. How existing investments can be reutilized on path to digital to make more compelling business case with no-locking to technology, vendors?
