‘Reinvent with digital’ is one of our strategic pillars. Data and digitalisation have helped Rolls-Royce generate new insights, solutions and opportunities.
Our digital programmes have become even more mission-critical and relevant amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Digital tools allow us to overcome physical limitations and connect not just with our employees, customers and industry partners, but also with governments, other sectors, as well as people from all walks of life on a global scale.
In these challenging times, we have also introduced our digital initiatives to the wider community to help build resilience. Rolls-Royce’s Digital Academy, Yocova and Emergent Alliance are three transformative digital programmes that we have launched this year to encourage digital learning, promote the exchange of ideas, and support organisations in their post-pandemic recovery through data.
We are proud that these initiatives have won the Technological Impact of the Year Award from the British Chambers of Commerce Singapore, at its 21st Annual Business Awards. In our view, this recognises that sustainable business excellence entails a commitment to sharing and collaborating in an effort to elevate wider industry and society as well.
“Digitalisation has been disrupting industries for many years and the shift towards digital value exchange is now more important than ever,” said Chris Murray, Head of Operations, R2 Data Labs, Rolls-Royce. “We have seen great momentum since the launch of these initiatives in early 2020, which tells us that companies are committed to accelerating their adoption of digital skills and capabilities.”
