John Weigelt

The past 20 years has seen two decades of both rapid technical innovation as well as tremendous business transformation. In 1998 few, if any, would have predicted the technology advances in machine learning, the internet of things, blockchains or even bots all driven by the power of trusted hyperscale cloud. Even fewer foresaw the social and business transformation that now occurs in conjunction with this technological advancement. This change, however, can often strain our existing frame of reference for standards, policies or legislative environment that guide the activities of individuals and organizations and act as a inhibitor to innovation. John Weigelt, National Technology Officer, will discuss some of the technology elements that have had the greatest impact on our lives, the business transformation that has occurred as a result of these elements and explore how we can leverage our collective experience to catapult local innovation ahead of others.
