Industries
diginomica has long held the view that industry verticals are where enterprise software innovation is most sorely needed. It is a topic we bring up on every vendor call, Workday is focused on services industries and therefore it should not surprise anyone to find that the company is doubling down on healthcare/pharma, education, professional services, and government. This has implications for both Workday s own development and its evolving relationship with partners who can fill white spaces. To my question on this element Pete Schlampp, executive vice president of product development said the company is thinking more about itself as a platform for development. While the company didn t make any specific partner announcements, Schlampp referred to funds transfer pricing in financial services as an example that Workday is building out.
