Mike Ethelston, UK Managing Partner at Capco, said:
“Alla’s experience working with business and technology stakeholders to transform customer experiences and reinvent operating models will be invaluable, both as we build on the success of our UK Digital practice and, crucially, as we help our clients navigate through the present global crisis and reshape their businesses in readiness for the post-pandemic ‘new normal.’
“The sudden enforced shift to a virtual marketplace means that the digital aspirations of financial institutions have never been more urgent or business critical. Working closely with their colleagues across our different domain practices, our Digital team can provide the tools, support and strategic guidance that firms need to reorient their businesses and build for the future.”
Alla Gancz said:
“Our UK Digital team is taking a leading role as firms look to adapt and enhance their services and capabilities during this period of intense disruption. It goes without saying that COVID-19 has driven home the importance of customer-centricity, agility, resilience and efficiency within financial services. Our designers, engineers and strategists are ideally placed to help our clients shape and execute digital enablement programs and embrace new ways of working, ensuring they will emerge stronger as ‘new normal’ business models take shape over the coming months.”
Capco’s fast-growing UK Digital practice builds better outcomes for people and organizations through our multi-disciplinary approach to innovation. Drawing on our experience around product strategy, design, engineering, solutions architecture and intelligent automation, we help our clients achieve their digital ambitions, accelerate transformation, map new ways of working and implement modern delivery practices across the enterprise.
