Introduction
In a fast‐evolving digital landscape, choosing the right technology consulting partner can make or break your transformation efforts. According to a recent Gartner report, 87% of business leaders say digitalization is a top priority for their organization. However, many struggle to find the right partner with the right expertise, culture, and long‐term vision.
