At the risk of beginning this post with a completely unoriginal and obvious point, the country is currently experiencing a level of cultural, political, and economic turmoil not seen in many decades. In fact, I would argue that today’s combination of a worldwide pandemic, political unrest, and racial tensions have left most of us reeling.
Contributed by Bill Narin, Global Business Development, IEEE-ISTO. The Year Was 1904. Crossword puzzles, canned beer, and sliced bread hadn’t been invented. The American flag had 45 stars and the average American worker made 22 cents an hour. The San Francisco Earthquake was still two years in the future. The Great Chicago Fire was three plus decades in the rear view mirror — the first well known use of which, by the way, would occur in seven more years when driver Ray Harroun used one in

At Managed Services Platform our vision has always been to turn technically heavy client meetings into engaging value added business conversations. 2020 has brought new challenges for Account Managers and vCIOs.

Walmart is America’s iconic one-stop shop for affordable goods ranging from groceries to farm supplies and beyond. But when it came to managing its partnerships, Walmart’s technology wasn’t quite so unified, with two different platforms to handle mobile and desktop transactions.
