The adoption of IT Process Automation is accelerating in
response to increased complexity, new available
technologies and the evolving role of the IT Organization
RPA is the fastest-growing software segment
in the world (~$2B by end of 2021) and will
reach nearly universal adoption by 2023
85% of support interactions will be
handled by a chatbot by 2025
136% projected growth rate of AI
Chatbots use over the next 18 months
for Service Organizations
70% of CIOs are assuming the
leadership of high-impact initiatives
across the whole organization
90% of organizations experienced an
increase in Cyberattacks due to COVID-19,
and the global cost of cybercrime shot to
nearly $1 trillion in 2020 (double what
it was just two years prior)
