The PMI Toronto Chapter is partnering with Deloitte Inc., one of the key leading experts in this field and will be showcasing various real-life demos of Robotics being used in key industries today.

Deloitte has worked with both private and public sector industry partners to implement Robotics Process Automation (RPA) software and program across the globe.

RPA is a growing technology based notion of software robots or artificial intelligence (AI). RPA is a computer coded software that helps industries address technology capability gaps, free up labour hours for other critical tasks and deliver better, faster services. Key benefits of RPA includeCost Reduction (reduced processing times & increased throughput) opportunities; Improved customer & employee experience; Decreased cycle times; Improved accuracy, Enhanced reporting and others. 
The event will also address Project Risk Analytics and the ability to predict project successes all related to RPA.

The event will feature live demonstrations of RPA hosted by experts in the field.
