Events reimagined: Creatio’s 24-hour livestream conference ACCELERATE GLOBAL

Every year since 2017, we hosted our offline ACCELERATE Global Event tours gathering thousands of forward-thinking leaders to embark on Creatio’s one-of-a-kind experiences, while learning, networking and discovering the future of business transformation. But as you know, this year is different. Everybody has had to adapt one way or another, either personally and/or professionally during this turbulent time. It was more imperative than ever to come together as a community. At Creatio, we wanted to bring value in the midst of this uncertainty, so we came up with our Digital Events.

As part of the event cycle, the Creatio team, together with our amazing partners, collaborated on a program of 230 digital events, with a target of 500 total within a year, to encourage organizational leaders and provide some guidance in unprecedent times. Since April, we’ve been connecting professionals from all walks of life and from various industries around a vital topic of how to quickly transform any business into a low-code company. We believe this will strengthen any company’s resilience in times of change and future proof its adaptability.

Since the outbreak of the pandemic, organizations have done their best to quickly adjust their company infrastructure to new market demand. It is noted that  some companies acted 20 to 25 times faster to change in back-office and R&D process digitization than expected by industry experts and even their employees. As for remote working, companies accelerated access 40 times more quickly than thought possible. Prior to the pandemic, it would have taken at least a year to implement the required level of remote access that was needed during the crisis. On average, it took companies about 11 days to implement a workable solution. Experts are now asking, is this the new normal? Will organizations be expected to maintain such a level of rapid adaptability? I think that yes, this expectation is here to stay. In fact, change will only accelerate. The question remains, how quickly will companies be able to keep up with this change? The answer is simple: by embracing low-code.

Low-code companies outsmart competition by leveraging technologies differently. In reality, who wants to spend years and millions of dollars automating processes? Especially when there are more adaptable technologies available. At this point, it’s just bad business. Research by KPMG shows that the number of executives who named “low-code/no-code development platforms” as their most valuable investment has increased by more than double – from 10% to 26% - since the emergence of COVID-19. KPMG has reviewed over 150 use cases of low-code application in various companies and found the results to be astonishing. There was a 50% reduction in cycle times and an 80% first pass yield rate at a global life sciences company, while a reinsurance company boasted 100% compliance and transparency, and an 80% reduction in errors.

With a mission to always helping companies accelerate, for October 28th our team at Creatio planned a one-of-a-kind worldwide 24-hour livestream conference called Accelerate Global! The aim of this event is to demonstrate to the world that everyone can automate business ideas in minutes using Creatio’s low-code platform for process management and CRM. This is a new way of looking at how technology can become a competitive advantage. By creating simple tools to make everyone a developer so that they can change processes faster, mid-size and large organizations will have solutions to accelerate change without extra resources or extensive programming background.

Our team has worked really hard to put together this non-stop virtual event for IT and digital leaders building the future of enterprise with low-code. To ensure we accommodated every participants’ needs, we split sessions into tracks and languages so every attendee can have an opportunity to gain new knowledge, master skills in their area of interest, but also have the option to do so in their preferred language: English, French, Portuguese, Russian, German, Spanish, Ukrainian and Indonesian.

These sessions are designed to deliver actionable and powerful insights with trends you can apply and reap benefits from almost immediately. Additionally, to unleash the power of collaboration and networking, visionaries, experts and leaders from all over the world will get together to explore what’s next in the software and business world, and how creating a low-code company strengthens resilience and ensures agility, both imperative in the current, changing climate.

Nothing compares to seeing our customers and partners in person. But 2020 brought us an opportunity to reach even more people and host our customers, partners and forward-thinking professionals that might not have otherwise been able to come to our event. Now, more than ever, we are committed to supporting communities all around the world with practical advice and insights, and we are not only determined to help them stay up and running through these unpredictable, turbulent times, but to provide them with tools to harbor a change-enabling environment. So come and join Creatio’s community on October 28th for Accelerate Global to remain aligned to the change and drive business forward together.
