  Session Summary:
  Promoting DX is crucial for organizations to maintain competitiveness.

Conversely, even if information is digitized for DX, risks such as unauthorized data exfiltration by departing employees can arise, requiring organizations to select appropriate tools for DX advancement. This seminar will explain sales DX starting from the familiar business item, "business cards." Simultaneously, it will discuss key points for proper management of business card information, including examples of utilizing the sales business card management tool "SKYPCE."
