Digital Business - Capstone project (Coursera)

Digital Business - Capstone project (Coursera)

LVMH! Huawei! Energysquare! Three companies in very different industries: luxury goods, telecommunications, energy. Three companies with very different sizes, histories and DNA. And yet, they all share the same objective: to innovate and change, and so to remain or become leaders in their respective markets. The multiple questions that this raises for them warrant your close attention.
