What does it take to create a vision for digital transformation and then bring it to life? That’s exactly what we discuss in this episode of Digitalization Tech Talks! The company that achieved this is Midrex Technologies who specializes in direct reduction ironmaking technology in the steel industry.

Join us as we interview Curtis Hughes, Midrex’s Chief Information Officer, about all the factors that went into their digitalization journey. First presented at the Siemens Realize LIVE conference in May 2024, Curtis focuses on completing a “people-centric transformation” and all the benefits associated with it (please reach out to Curtis directly regarding his presentation).

Tune in as we delve into an array of topics related to the transformation including:

• Creating the vision
• Aligning the entire team, including company leadership and individual contributors throughout the organization, with the vision and strategy
• Overcoming challenges and resistance to change
• Collaboration and partnerships
• Outcomes and successes
