Organizations seeking to keep up with the digital transformation are investing in new technologies with an end-to-end (E2E) focus on their products and processes, aiming to improve operational excellence, worker experience, product quality and delivery timelines. Adoption of these new technologies requires a systematic, structural, and holistic transformation of individuals and the organization. Smart organizations of today and the future need to effectively capture, maintain and share their data, information and knowledge - including their people’s implicit and tacit knowledge - to maintain a competitive advantage and meet these high demands.  This workshop is a continuation of the European Annual Meeting Workshop and will include learnings and output from attendees.  As well, comparisons from US and European attendees’ experiences will be made to benefit future ISPE content.
