On this special episode of the Futurum Tech Webcast – Interview Series I am joined by Stefan Krauss, SVP, Global Head of Discrete Industries and Energy & Natural Resources at SAP. This is the third episode in a series — done in partnership with SAP — where I will be speaking with advisors and executives across several different industries on the state of their industry and what we can expect in the future.

In our conversation we discussed the following:

• The areas of opportunities for the high tech and industrial manufacturing industries
• A deep dive into how the current market is causing organizations to develop new business models for growth
• An exploration into ways organizations can evolve from product-centric to service-centric
• A look into the challenges organizations will have to overcome during this evolution

The high tech and industrial manufacturing industries, like many other industries, have undergone dramatic shifts in the last few years and many organizations within these industries are still dealing with the changes. My conversation Stefan explores how organizations can navigate these changes and find success for the future. It’s definitely one you don’t want to miss.
