Technology Tangents
In Technology Tangents, Credera's Global Chief Technology Officer, Global Chief Data Officer, and North America CEO bring leaders together to discuss the modern technologies of today and how organizations should navigate the implications for tomorrow.
The discussions are fun, light-hearted, and frankly opinionated, but hopefully it gives technology leaders a sense of what matters, what to pay attention to, and what to ignore.
