Welcome Speech by Ivan Lekushev – The Digital Healthcare Revolution
Ivan Lekushev, CEO of BGO Software, had the honor to welcome all guests to the event and share exciting facts about the digital transformation of the sector. He shared curious facts about the informational age and digital transformation. Ivan also explained the difference between digital transformation and digitization.
