AI for digital industries: navigating enterprise needs, investments and supplier decisions
This report is available to those subscribed to the IoT & Enterprise module.
Digital transformation of vertical sectors is accelerating, with AI being a top area of investment. GSMA Intelligence surveyed nearly 4,200 enterprises across 21 countries and 10 vertical sectors to gain relevant insights into their digital transformation across a range of technologies. This report analyses the key findings and implications for AI.
These insights can help suppliers of AI technologies enhance their B2B strategies and messaging, improve their competitive position, target new services and markets, identify most suitable partners, and redefine their budget and allocation of resources. For end users of AI technologies, these insights can help enhance benchmarking activities, supplier decisions, services and products and spending decisions.
