In his own words…
"E-business is, in fact, business these days. There is no business that doesn't concern itself with one form or another of digital transformation. The digital transformation has already started, but it will continue to cause a profound architectural change in our lives. And it was brought about largely by entrepreneurs. We are at the tip of the iceberg."
