Many businesses and organizations are implementing digital transformation and delivering outcomes. In February 2017, Fujitsu conducted the global digital transformation survey and received responses from 1,600 of business leaders across 15 countries. The survey illuminated the outcomes and key factors for success in digital transformation, as well as the challenges and necessary capabilities, and perceptions relating to AI. The result was analyzed by global, country and industry levels.
