Business transformation and continuous improvement imply ongoing efforts to enhance business performance and adapt to changing market conditions. One of the most significant trends in this field is digital transformation, which if done properly, can improve efficiency, increase competitiveness, and drive growth.

Another trend in business transformation is the shift towards new business models. Many companies are now exploring new revenue sources, such as subscription or platform-based models and sharing economy models. These models allow companies to better monetize their products and services and better serve the needs of their customers.

In this context, the Chamber of Commerce Switzerland-Romania with the support of Advanced Thinking and Horváth will organize the ’How Businesses Innovate, Transform  and Continuously Improve’ event, to emphasize the need for a fundamental redesign of business models and analyze how some companies managed to overcome this process.
