I was in corporate strategy with Capgemini for the previous three years, where I wrote research and advised the board of directors and senior executives on major market trends, competitive intelligence, M&A opportunities, and partnerships/alliances with the largest technology providers (i.e. Microsoft, SAP, Oracle, AWS).
Prior to that, I was a research director with IDC where I consulted with IT services buyers on their major buying pain points, and wrote research targeted to the largest IT services vendors (i.e. Accenture, Deloitte, TCS, Cognizant) on all aspects of their go to market strategy.
