Digital Strategy, Innovation & Transformation

Digital Strategy, Innovation & Transformation

Our members determine the themes on which we act. We work on the continuous digitization of our organizations. The digital strategy - as part of the overall strategy – and its implementation within the organization are central to this theme.

Distinctive for the digital revolution in which we find ourselves, are the rapid developments. There is hardly time to notice, evaluate, implement and control a new technology, or the next alternatives are already presenting themselves. It takes a lot of time and budget to stay informed, possibly adjust the business strategy, make the right technology choices, successfully complete the implementation, have employees work with it successfully and avoid setbacks. Learning from the experiences of other users can help to prevent such costly mistakes.  
 
That is why we are committed to: 

  1. Sharing knowledge and insights about the application of new technologies in practice. For instance, creating value with data, AI and alike. These knowledge and inspiration sessions are accessible for experts, CxOs, and board members of our members.  

  2. Sharing knowledge on how to bring non-IT employees of the organization up to speed on working with digital technology, and adapting processes. 

  3. Expand the use of available expertise and experience, by organising more frequent peer-reviews aimed at improving digital projects of colleagues who are also member of the CIO Platform Nederland. 

  4. Making, if required, experts from our community available for providing feedback on policy initiatives of the government, and by providing expertise for technical briefings and parliamentary enquiries, and other initiatives on the national level that our members consider to be of societal interest.  

We are living in a period in which the application of IT and data is experiencing an enormous acceleration. How to apply these in a good and structured way - in these hectic times -, what choices to make and which preconditions to set and how to actually create value, is a major challenge for the leaders of all organizations. It helps enormously if we can exchange experiences about this and learn from each other!

    AI Sustainability Rating - Wiebren van der Zee ABNAMRO

    When multiple models could do the (AI) trick for your use case, which one would you choose? Do you take an open source small model, the most sovereign solution or will you go for the greenest option? Using Grok via Gas fueled turbines in the US versus selecting Mistral operating on the 'Nuclear' French grid will yield very different carbon outcomes!
