About Event

As Shaastra approaches, we are excited to announce the Digitalize Technology Roadmap Session at IIT Madras!

Digitalize will take place on January 3, bringing together SMEs, startups, and non-tech organisations to explore how technology can be adopted practically, sustainably, and without large tech teams. This one-of-a-kind initiative focuses on helping organisations identify digital gaps, assess their digital maturity, and take confident first steps toward building their technological backbone.
The session will feature a talk by Walmart, offering insights into their software tools and AI integration. It will also include a Digital Needs Assessment (DNA) by CeDISI which will help SMEs understand their digital maturity, followed by steps to go digital. Additionally, there will be talks by tech experts, covering topics such as workflow automation and low-code/no-code tools, along with real-world case studies of SMEs they have guided through digital transformation challenges.

The session offers insights from:
Dr. Kavitha M: Post-Doctoral Research Fellow, IIT Madras at Walmart Center for Tech Excellence
Gowri Shankar: Senior project officer, Walmart Center for Tech Excellence
Piyush Singh: Entrepreneur, Author and Global Speaker on FinTech and MSME Digitalisation
