FOREWORD

IT ’ S A BUMPER edition of Gigabit this month , packed to bursting with exclusive insight from some of the world ’ s most successful technology leaders .
Bouke Hoving is CIO of the Year , deservedly . In overseeing digital transformation at Dutch telecoms giant KPN he has set standards to which many will aspire . We travelled to Amsterdam for this month ’ s cover feature , where we dug in on the methodologies and strategies powering Bouke and his team to success .
Meanwhile in Toronto , we ascended to the top floor of Great-West Lifeco ’ s historic Canada Life building – an iconic landmark whose venerable exterior belies the buzz of technological change within . Philip Armstrong , an expat Brit , is Global CIO and he is leading a technology-driven revolution at Canada ’ s preeminent financial services giant .
And in Singapore we meet two of the people busily redefining manufacturing and supply chains with the creation of the Conscious Factory . They are leading the digital transformation of Nokia ’ s manufacturing processes globally , and the scale of their rapidly realising vision could change the way we think about production for good .
Read ( and watch ) all that plus much , much more in the pages that follow , and be sure to join the conversation in Gigabit ’ s Linkedin group , or follow us on Twitter and Facebook .
