  1. Digital Transformation through Analytics At the Heels of The New Normal www.sganalytics.com

  2. 2020 was the year when organizations across the board were caught in the flurry of an unprecedented ambiguity which would later, evolve into what is now famously known as, ‘the new normal’. The COVID-19 driven digital adoption witnessed companies of all sizes, across sectors racing to transform themselves to stay relevant in the uncertain times. TOP 8 DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION TRENDS FOR 2021 We speculate that by 2022, almost 85% of corporate strategies will specifically highlight information as one of the most crucial enterprise assets and, analytics as an unavoidable competency. Media and Entertainment 5G Will bring a revolutionary change in 2021 & beyond OTT To take over the traditional networks BFSI 2021 will perhaps be the ‘blitzkrieg’ year for digital transformation where a slew of new technologies will continue to disrupt the business landscape. ML Ops, augmented analytics, IoMT, DataOps, and the deployment of 5G network in the media & entertainment industry will be at the forefront of disruptive technology trends in 2021. The pandemic-fueled digital acceleration has captured the attention and imagination of business leaders, developers, and consumers alike. The ‘new normal’ has already happened and it’s cutthroat. It is also rewarding beyond measure for those who are its early adopters. DataOps Fostering data democracy RegTech To identify risk and control frameworks seamlessly Technology ML Ops Help Businesses deliver value Augmented Analytics Transforming market, capabilities and organizations Healthcare IoMT Reshaping healthcare AI and NLP Reducing clinical burden 2 DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION THROUGH ANALYTICS www.sganalytics.com

  3. Media & Entertainment in 2021: It’s Going to be All about Exploding Data and Convergence The Media & Entertainment industry is witnessing continuous transformation. As the demarcation between print and digital, pay-TV and OTT, and social and traditional media is starting to fade, M&E companies are formulating new strategies about their offering and delivery of services. The key lies in leveraging the right technologies to cost-effectively deliver premium content tailored to the needs of the audience. The sentiment of the Media & Entertainment industry is expected to be positive in 2021. Consumers are integrating several products and services of the industry in their day- to-day lives, helping the M&E industry navigate the turbulent waters of the coronavirus pandemic. This era will probably be remembered as the ‘golden age of M&E’ in the pages of history, when the COVID-19 pandemic had acted as a catalyst in accelerating digitization and caused tectonic shifts in people’s behavioral patterns. 3 DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION THROUGH ANALYTICS www.sganalytics.com

  4. The 5G Effect on Media & Entertainment Shift in Media Consumption in Developing Countries 5G with Its Ultralow Latency and High Bandwidth Will Help M&E Companies Ride This Wave When the world was confined to their homes, consumers turned to over-the-top (OTT) platforms to entertain themselves. In 2020, the media and entertainment industry witnessed a drastic change among the consumers and their preferences, especially in the developing countries. The shift from conventional media to OTT media, particularly in the lockdown period due to COVID-19, has resulted in, what will be remembered as, ‘the steaming wars’ among the streaming giants of time – Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, et al. With 4K content making waves and evolving along the lines of Full HD, both content creators and distributors will need to adapt quickly to feed the demand. With the implementation of 5G networks, it would not be wrong to state that the world will move toward 4K as the prevalent standard for both pre-recorded and live content distribution. This would exponentially increase the demand for high bandwidth at very low latency, which is expected to be resolved by 5G. According to Inc42, in India, consumers’ average viewing time has been observed to be around 5.27 hours per day, with 97.8% of respondents suggesting that they use video to communicate with family and friends. Indians’ usage of video streaming is the highest in the world, with the work–from-home option being offered to employees by their organizations industry. Media Industry to Yield Revenues within a Decade from 5G 0.2% $409M 18.5% $47B 2019 97.8% use video to communicate with family and friends 2022 57% $183B 79.9% $335B The sudden rise in real-time streaming needs the suitable infrastructure to handle the demand for high- quality video. Also, the quality of content plays a big role in the new age consumer’s consumption patterns. Full HD quality that was considered too pricey earlier is now the de-facto standard across devices. 2025 2028 Source: NASSCOM 4 DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION THROUGH ANALYTICS www.sganalytics.com

  5. Traditional Networks Going the OTT Way With the growing demand for OTT platforms, traditional networks have now started to underscore their presence via OTT platforms. As television programming undergoes a renaissance, media companies are going to witness a great deal of opportunity in generating advertising revenue through cross-media audiences. The Media and Entertainment sector is undergoing digital transformation, which demands a synchronous journey of technology and business. Data and analytics will help the media industry multiply profitability. The OTT world is a world of personalization where the audience has the flexibility to update/upgrade subscription plans. Data collection now is no longer about extrapolating from a sample. It will be about collecting all the relevant user, viewership, and behavior data, and converting it to insights that will drive all decisions from content retention to acquisition to revenue generation. This will require data engineering on a petabyte scale to fully realize the data’s value. Segment CAGR for the Next Five Years: 2019–2024 29% 22% 19% 14% 9% 8% 7% 6% 2% -3% -1% OTT Video Internet Advertising Video Games and Esports Music, Radio and Podcasts Books Traditional TV and Home Video B2B TV Newspapers and Consumer Magazines Cinema OOH Advertising Source: PwC Global E&M Outlook 2020-2024 5 DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION THROUGH ANALYTICS www.sganalytics.com

  6. Data Availability and Engineering With the availability of marketers, advertisers, and content providers, it has now become important to have a ready-to-use, scalable framework to process, transform, analyze, and interpret the data into something meaningful. In the coming months, it would not be surprising to see companies depending on more than one organization to measure/ understand the viewership/TRP of their content or channels. Entertainment players would now prefer collaborating with companies to measure audience metrics across platforms/channels. Data measurement in the entertainment industry is a two-way process where cross-media audience and their viewership or online presence help advertisers gain opportunity to execute an omnichannel advertising plan. This can be made possible by augmenting data from sources such as viewing history, demographics, and so on to have a better understanding/insight into improvised ad delivery and execution. At SGA, we use data engineering and analytics to build deeper insights for traditional as well as OTT players, helping them develop a user-centric approach, which could be a game-changer for attracting the maximum size of targeted audience. Use Case A leading US Media and Entertainment conglomerate wanted to implement an automated data ingestion application to increase its scalability and attain a competitive edge in the market. SGA created an automated data ingestion application that helped our client obtain large streams of data in a structured format for analysis. With the automated data ingestion software created by SGA, our client was able to cleanse data from multiple soruces, which was further processed proactively. Our architecture is also flexible enough to add more data sources with minimal heavy lifting to enable future analysis.

  7. BFSI: Ushering Data Democracy, Innovation, and Vigilance in Increasingly Vulnerable Times Harnessing the tremendous potential of data, many financial institutions are increasingly engaging in transformation programs that are aimed at reshaping their business models. Leading financial institutions that previously focused on descriptive analytics to make informed decisions are now integrating analytics in their processes, products, services, and various other front-line activities. 7 DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION THROUGH ANALYTICS www.sganalytics.com

  8. DataOps - Flexible and Secure Data Governance while Fostering Data Democracy The two most crucial areas of focus for any financial service company are continuous innovation and driving data governance alongside digital transformation. To be in a position to achieve both the goals, a DataOps approach can be followed. DataOps implements the workflow benefits of DevOps while concentrating on data governance, socializing data and ethics in a technology-agnostic way. This helps in lowering the level of skills essential for using data in order make business teams self-reliant. DataOps: Automating the Data Journey With DataOps expected growth in total data volume (in Zettabytes, ZB) 180 2025 44 2020 32% CAGR 5 2013 Source: IDC Moving away from the traditional ‘one size fits all’ approach, DataOps addresses governance and data management challenges with increased flexibility and distribution. It enables organizations to decentralize data governance responsibility and provide enterprise-wide effective tools that facilitate the robust data access controls, alerting, observability, and automation. Integrating DataOps with data-intensive technologies like that of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and deep learning, the focus has been shifted toward Metadata where data assets are tagged, catalogued, and indexed into a centralized repository. With a DataOps platform, data-driven organizations gain flexibility to innovate and execute business models at a faster pace with strong data governance. DataOps helps organizations achieve a sustainable value out of AI and ML technologies. 8 DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION THROUGH ANALYTICS www.sganalytics.com

  9. Eliminating the Breach World through RegTech RegTech till date has primarily been focused on digital transformation of manual reporting and compliance processes. This includes leveraging automation and basic ML to speed up Know Your Customer (KYC) processes. In the next stage of the RegTech revolution, companies are willing to experiment further with advanced AI and ML to deliver outcomes that go beyond regulatory reporting and cost reduction to identification of risk and prevention of financial crime. RegTech: One of the fastest growing segments of financial innovation © $270B Financial institutions’ annual compliance spending >$300B Fines paid by banks since 2008 23,864 Fintech patents owned by the most prolific tech company $5.1B Regtech Investment made in the Q3 of 2020 $76B Forecast RegTech spending by 2022 - up from $10.6B in 2017 10-15% of financial institutions’ staff work on governance, risk management and compliance 34% RegTech’s predicted share of all regulatory spending by 2022 (4.8% in 2017) Source: Fintechnews.ch A majority of the RegTech solutions can be incorporated within the existing IT infrastructure, making the adoption process relatively straightforward. For example, AI and ML not only help consumer verification apps dramatically reduce the verification time, but also allow it to be conducted virtually. of compliance processes and improving effectiveness continues to be in play. However, it is evident that the potential of RegTech goes beyond merely ensuring the efficiency of compliance. The data analytics techniques that are specifically designed to fulfill regulators’ demand can also provide insightful information about consumers and markets. When used correctly, RegTech can emerge as a source of competitive advantage. Going beyond compliance, RegTech helps in improving operations and enhancing competitiveness. Since the current era of solutions is being driven by data, the accelerated use of analytics, dashboards, platforms, AI, and ML facilitates the delivery of insights to various functional teams within an enterprise as well. Other business functions, such as customer engagement, marketing, new products and services, can benefit from the customized insights, thereby boosting overall efficiency and productivity. Use Case One of the world’s largest European banks needed an end-to-end automated regulatory compliant solution. SGA created a customized reporting platform that enabled the client to identify the eligibility for the post- trade transparency and transaction reporting required by MiFID II. This resulted in the complete elimination of the manual reconciliation effort put in by the bank’s compliance team and allowed them to focus on reducing the misreporting of errors and the corresponding non- compliance fees. One example of the evolution of RegTech would be in-fraud detection and prevention. Linking the Regtech data and harnessing the power of today’s petabyte scale processing can improve fraud detection, prediction, and prevention by leaps and bounds. Given that regulatory fines post financial crisis have crossed over $400 billion (as published by a research report), RegTech’s primary charter of cutting the cost Visit to download the complete case study. 9 DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION THROUGH ANALYTICS www.sganalytics.com

  10. Digital Transformation Trends in Technology Sector in 2021 – ML Ops and Augmented Analytics Machine Learning today is still in the labs. We were able to discover, develop, test and deploy 5 Covid vaccines in the space of a year but operationalizing Machine learning is still stuck in the proverbial IT red tape and is the single biggest obstacle in delivering on the promises made in the last 5 years. There is light at the end of the tunnel though. In 2021 and beyond, MLOps will finally come of age and transform Machine learning the way Devops did to software development in the previous decade.

Touch-free interactions and the need for efficiency has the potential to provide a push to the clinical use of natural language processing (NLP), which is a branch of AI that allows the system to understand human language. The data sourced from a patient’s EHR can be seamlessly analyzed. Additionally, various administrative bottlenecks can be addressed with insights extracted by analyzing the data generated from automated services, such as symptom-checking chatbots. Several digital platforms serving at-home monitoring services are now being launched in different countries for SMART medication dispensing. Such platforms and their software are equipped with standardized APIs helping patients and clinicians have access to their own data and well-encrypted communication with each other. Such platforms are cloud-based and highly customizable. Deloitte, in one of its reports for health solutions outlined the growing demand for digital transformation happening around Europe. It highlighted how in Norway, several hospitals and clinicians have started using such digital platforms and claimed that almost 66% of their patients now have control over their health and 32% hospitalizations. These platforms are user-friendly and cost-effective and have helped doctors have lesser number of in- person appointments. A nursing bot can never replace a nurse in the hospital; however, it can save time, improve efficiency, and resolve medical errors. Bringing down the cost of care can only happen if hospitals include predictive analytics, EHR, and automation in their current setup and near-term roadmap.
