Abstract<\/h2>\n

Digital Transformation is one of the hot topics in the higher education sector. Digital societies are leaned toward the adoption of personalized services on-demand, anytime and anywhere. Emergent technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), data analytics or Internet of Things (IoT) facilitate the creation of new disruptive companies in diverse sectors. Higher Education is also one of those which can be strongly disrupted. In this talk, we will discuss digital transformation strategies for higher education and we will analyze the use case of deploying a student orientation chatbot in the University of Murcia<\/span>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
