38:50: RPA is Dead. Let’s talk about how work gets done! - Philip SheenHead of Public Sector UK & Ireland, UiPath 
The term RPA is nearly two decades old - it’s legacy. However, it’s still being referenced as part of organisations tech or transformation strategies and is common lexicon across the business landscape. Some have moved onto Intelligent Automation (and variations on the theme), however, we would suggest Public Sector bodies are still approaching this from the wrong angle. In this presentation, we will discuss the different approach of thinking through a lens of: “how do we actually execute work in our organisation?” in order to stimulate a different way of looking at the challenges facing the UK’s Public Sector, as well as shifting perceptions of the world’s leading Ai and Automation software business.
