Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - The Rise of the AI-powered company in the postcrisis world

Publication: Boston : The Boston Consulting Group, 2020Physical description: 7 p.Notes: Sumario: For some companies, global shocks have historically brought moments of truth. They can rapidly alter the business landscape and the terms of competition, often in ways that aren't immediately apparent. But companies that make bold moves during challenging times can turn adversity into advantage. The SARS outbreak of 2003 is often credited with giving rise to e-commerce giants such as Alibaba and JD.com, for example, while companies such as American Express and Starbucks pivoted during the global financial crisis of 2008-2009 to digital operating models that enabled them to thrive and dramatically increase shareholder value. In this sense, COVID-19 is likely to be no different from other crises. It will greatly accelerate several major trends that were already well underway before the outbreak and that will continue as companies shift their focus to recovery. For instance, rather than heavily concentrating sourcing and production in a few low-cost locations, companies will build more redundancy into their value chains. Consumers will purchase more and more goods and services online. And increasing numbers of people will work remotely.Materia / lugar / evento: COVID-19 Coronavirus Pandemias Inteligencia artificial Nuevas tecnologías Comercio electrónico Digitalización Internet Otros autores: Candelon, François
