“By combining technologies and expertise in new and unique ways through collaborative problem-solving, The_Loft@RRD aligns creative solutions with business goals to redefine the way companies deliver value to customers.”
Investment in transformational technologies is growing at a 17.5% compound annual growth rate and is expected to reach $7.4 trillion between 2020 and 2023, according to IDC. Yet this investment does not always translate into strategic improvements. In 2018, Gartner found that while 66% of CIOs believed they were transforming their businesses, only 10% actually were doing so, based on their descriptions of the digital initiatives in place.
To close this gap and help enterprises execute on their goals, The_Loft @RRD is an “Innovation-as-a-Service” platform physically located in RRD’s Chennai center. It offers strategic, technology, and creative services from a large RRD ecosystem of expert consultants, technologists and researchers. The_Loft@RRD delivers customized solutions that help solve companies’ specific needs and achieve their business goals. These solutions include document collaboration tools, the creation of compact, hyper-personalized videos for virtually unlimited numbers of customers, prospects, and influencers, as well as advanced data visualization and insights.
