Organisations simply cannot afford to stand still when it comes to technology, and just as technology is evolving, the role of the Chief Technology Officer (CTO) also must evolve.
Traditionally, the CTO represents the technology leadership of an organisation’s products or services. Now, a vital part of the CTO’s role is to recognise and embrace ongoing technological advances. CTOs need to provide the vision and technical leadership for the organisation’s digital transformation by understanding the changing future technology trends and potential organisational threats, and gain new technology-related skills.
Curated with a strong emphasis on real-world relevance to meet the challenging times and rapidly evolving business needs and trends, the Chief Technology Officer Programme offered by NUS School of Computing will provide you with a matrix of knowledge from which you can manage your organisation’s digitalisation journey in the role of a CTO. You will emerge with the competencies and skills required to build and lead your organisation with agility, for transformation and change in the digital economy.
In 2022, spending on digital transformation (DX) is projected to reach 1.6 trillion USD. By 2026, global digital transformation spending is forecast to reach 3.4 trillion USD.
Tech projects are expected to be up by 30% across most organisations.
