(President, Haier India); Arvind Gupta (Co-founder, Digital India Foundation); and Preeti Bajaj (CEO, Luminous Power Technologies).

Sharing his views in the session, Nikhil Mathur, MD, GfK India, “The Speed of change is multiplying and will continue to have the momentum. The most challenging aspect for business leaders is to target attention-deficit consumers. It is crucial for organizations to make strategic investments in building data capabilities, shift in mindset, and the ways in which companies use data, analytics, and AI.”
He also added, “The focus for us today is on how our actions require data to move forward. The global environment, the industrial revolution, and the blurry boundary line between the physical and cyber worlds are three lenses through which to view the entire concept of this new world. So, it is important that organizations really make a framework of innovation and disruption and look at those things that can take the organization forward.”
Most of the panelists agreed upon the role of data in growing businesses and bringing innovation by keeping in mind the needs of their customers starting from scratch.
