With organizations around the world rapidly adopting Office 365, IT pros need to be prepared to perform efficient, effective tenant-to-tenant migrations. Whether you’re undergoing a merger or acquisition, or it’s time to clean up and consolidate your IT infrastructure to drive productivity and growth, a successful migration requires one thing above all else: a tight focus on your users’ needs. In the end, success is not measured by checking off pieces of data moved; it’s about ensuring that everyone remains productive during the project and after migration is complete.

Since more and more decisions that used to be made by humans are nowadays made either with the help of Artificial Intelligence (AI) or by AI alone, it is essential that the AI algorithms are “fair.” In this whitepaper, we discuss issues surrounding the fairness of AI applications, with a special focus on how it can be assessed independently and subsequently certified. We explain why an AI application cannot be classified – and subsequently certified – as “fair” or “unfair” in a general sense and propose an approach that makes it possible to classify it as “fair” or “unfair” under the (application)-specific definition of fairness.

These organisations have a quest to scale; they are big on customer experience; they are open to partnerships and are able to deploy their products and services at scale through APIs; they are big adopters of the cloud and quite often are born in the cloud; they embrace design thinking and are happy to return to first principles to find innovative solutions to business problems; and they are relentless at leveraging the power of artificial intelligence (AI) for insights and decision making.

We first published this index five years ago. The world was different then. Governments were dealing with a landscape defined by benign growth, relative global stability, the optimism of an emergent technology. In 2022, it feels like everything has changed. It looks like we are entering a global recession, war has returned to Europe and AI breaks new ground every week. Just the last month has brought advances in art (Stable Diffusion), chat (ChatGPT) and negotiation (CICERO).

“The services market for artificial intelligence technologies is rapidly maturing on the back of several years of learning and a realization—delivering AI is unlike delivering any other technology thus far. Delivering on the promise of AI calls for far more collaboration between service providers, tech vendors, and enterprise clients.” The biggest differentiator in enterprise AI services, as described by most of the customer leaders, is the quality of people—not just the quantity available for a specific skill. Domain understanding and data engineering capabilities are top priorities. A culture of innovation, experimentation, collaboration, and co creation with customers is the key winning formula here.”
