New research by Revolut Business among 150 Romanian business decision-makers (CEOs, CFOs, and COOs) revealed that local companies prefer to invest their money in modernizing their IT infrastructure and automating outdated systems rather than in artificial intelligence.
When asked where the largest budget increase will go this year, ‘modernizing IT infrastructure and cloud migration’ takes the top spot (19%), followed by scaling up sales and marketing for market share (16%) and hiring new talent to expand the team (12%). ‘Building out AI capabilities’ comes in sixth place in the ranking with only 10%.
