Summary

In this chapter, we learned how digital transformation initiatives apply to the public sector globally. These initiatives primarily target the welfare of citizens and similar stakeholders, who could be temporary residents and tourists, in some cases. Unlike the commercial sector, these transformations are not primarily driven by profit motives but provide the opportunity for the private sector to provide transformative solutions and economically benefit from that. In the next chapter, we will learn more about public-private partnerships, in the context of the ecosystems for industrial digital transformation. We will also learn about the consortiums and the partner and channel ecosystems created to accelerate industrial digital transformation.
