EDITOR’ S NOTE

Welcome to the 53rd edition of Intelligent CXO. I hope you enjoyed the new sections within the magazine last month, while reading the regular sections which include the latest business news and up-to-date, insightful thought leadership.

On the front cover of this month’ s magazine, we feature Brad Mallard, CTO at Version 1, which is a leader in Digital Transformation, partnering strategically with global organisations to adopt cutting-edge technologies and drive innovation responsibly. With a fast-growing team of 3,400 + professionals across four continents, Version 1 is committed to creating value through sustainable transformation.
Mallard discusses AI-driven Digital Transformation, focusing on its practical implementation and business impact. He said:“ Revisiting the idea of sustainable transformation, we can also think of it as continuous transformation and AI is the catalyst that enables this. On one level, AI has transformed business models, experiences and processes. On another, it empowers people and organisations to achieve far more than previously possible. It is redefining how we approach transformation and tackle historical challenges.” Turn to page 14 to read more.
bluQube is a cloud-native accounting platform developed by Symmetry, designed for mid to large organisations and helps simplify complex finance processes while giving teams better visibility to make decisions in real-time. Its CEO, Simon Kearsley, has led the business for over 25 years and in the feature from page 35 discusses what it takes to keep pace in an industry which never slows down.
We also have an Intelligent Technology section dedicated to all the latest technology developments affecting businesses and a page called Project Round-Up which features news from across our regions. I hope you enjoy the magazine and if you’ d like to contribute to any future issues, please do not hesitate to contact me by emailing rebecca @ lynchpinmedia. com
