“Adobe is a company that has driven digital transformation; the pandemic drove customers and companies to digitize all their processes. And that’s why we are here, to help them in this process so that digitization is part of their daily lives, so that paper ceases to exist in the world, and we optimize everything through digital tools,” said Valencia.

The executive pointed out that “it is super difficult to be away from customers” and remarked that, during the COVID-19 pandemic, the company always looked for “ways to be closer” to its customers.
