This year marks the 10th anniversary of our Young Influencers franchise. Time sure does fly when you’re having fun and acknowledging the office technology industry’s next-generation leaders. Little did I know when I came up with this concept 10 years ago that it would receive the attention and accolades it has received.
What’s especially gratifying to all of us here at The Cannata Report is that many of the young influencers we have profiled during the past 10 years are still in the industry with many moving into more senior roles in their organizations or elsewhere in the office technology industry. This month we present six stellar leaders in our cover story, Young Influencers 2023: Youth Movement, under 40 who excel at what they do.
