Leaders now see automation as a path to growth
This is an exclusive interview conducted by the Editor Team of CIO News with Amit Saxena, Chief Information Officer (CIO) at Ramco Plexus Ltd
Automation’s promise is not about replacing people. It’s about using technology to streamline and automate tedious manual work so human experts have more time to solve business problems. It’s empowering people with tech skills so they can automate data-handling tasks themselves, freeing up time to focus on more creative and valuable work.
Employee engagement, productivity, and creativity skyrocket, and everybody wins. In fact, many leaders now see automation as a path to growth.
Expected growth in the next one or two years:

- Consumer markets: 49%
- Tech, media, and telecom: 45%
