How to Drive Digital Transformation In Your Operation

Date: 09 August 2023

Watch it now!

The metals and mining industry has increasingly adopted digital technology to tackle its toughest challenges. But these investments aren't always delivering the hoped for ROI.

In fact, a recent Frost & Sullivan report (Mining in the Digital Era) revealed that operators have tons of data, yet struggle to optimize and act on this data effectively. In this webinar, our expert panel will review the report's findings across three main areas of mining operations and how companies can successfully integrate technology with minimal risk and maximum ROI.

Join the conversation and learn how digital transformation:

  • Improves operations
  • Prioritizes safety
  • Enhances workforce skills
  • Promotes sustainability
