Leadership announcement: Gareth Rees appointed leader of Deloitte Digital Africa\u2019s Digital Transformation practice<\/strong><\/p>\n

Johannesburg, <\/strong>16<\/strong> September 2016 \u00ad<\/strong>\u2013 Deloitte Digital Africa is delighted to announce the appointment of Gareth Rees as the leader of the firm\u2019s Digital Transformation practice. A specialist in rapidly bringing new products or services to market, Rees adds to the firm\u2019s leadership team a wealth of experience in helping companies devise innovative strategies and business models to survive and grow in an increasingly complex and fast-changing world.<\/p>\n

\u201cNew exponential technologies are being introduced at fast and rapidly accelerating rates, leaving no business untouched. Because of this, companies everywhere that have been successful for decades can now come under pressure from or even be unseated by a week-old start-up. Our Digital Transformation Practice continues to help clients capitalise on these technologies to disrupt before they get disrupted,\u201d says Rees.<\/p>\n

Rees says that the rate and volume of technological breakthroughs heralds the start of the fourth industrial revolution, which will have a systemic impact on global business and create new opportunities for those with the right acuity.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are at a point where digital transformation shouldn\u2019t merely be a part of strategy; it should be the strategy. Businesses that will continue to exist over the next few decades are those that have taken this to heart. Gareth\u2019s appointment strengthens Deloitte Digital\u2019s capabilities to not only provide clients strategic advice to guide them through these uncertain and fast-changing times, but also to build the technical solutions that back the strategy, and creatively drive their acceptance in the market,\u201d says Valter Ad\u00e3o, Lead Director at Deloitte Digital Africa and Innovation leader for Deloitte.<\/p>\n

Rees has been at Deloitte for four years and also heads up the firm\u2019s Rapid Commercialisation practice, which identifies unique high-potential start-up businesses and rapidly scales them through leveraging skills, insights, support capacity and market access from across the Deloitte network. He also supports the firm\u2019s Corporate Innovation and Growth practice.<\/p>\n
