Modernise or Die: Updating Business Critical Applications to Remain Top of Mind

18th April 2023, Europe 12:30 - 14:00 CET
IN PARTNERSHIP

How are you moving, managing, and modernising your applications in the cloud?

Balancing innovation and regulatory compliance can be challenging. On top of that, several industries are dealing ongoing issues due to the pandemic, the shortage of skills, and an increase in security breaches which is slowing down modernisation efforts. So, how can
adopting the right architecture approach help speed up innovation and meet customer needs?

The Pan African Banking and Financial Group, Attijariwafa Bank, adopted a hybrid cloud platform to help advance the digitisation of its banking operations, bring new services to customers, in a secure and flexible environment. Overall, it helped the bank streamline and integrate front-and back-office processes to modernise business and IT operations.

In an increasingly complex and competitive environment the pressure to manage and modernise your applications remains top of mind. So, how do you approach core application modernisation? How are you ensuring that security and regulatory compliance requirements are met?

Join IBM and a select group of industry experts to discuss how to meet customer needs, deliver innovation at scale, and build and manage applications on an open hybrid cloud.
