Andy Mulholland joined Capgemini in 1996, bringing with him thirteen years of experience from previous senior IT roles across all major industry sectors. In his current role as Global Chief Technology Officer, Andy is a member of the Capgemini Group management board and advises on all aspects of technology-driven market changes, as well as serving on the technology advisory boards of several organisations and enterprises, and being a member of the Policy Board for the British Computer Society. In 2006, Andy drew on his wealth of knowledge of Web 2.0 and Service Oriented Architecture technologies and co-authored the globally recognised book ‘Mashup Corporations’ with Chris Thomas of Intel. This was followed in May 2008 by ‘Mesh Collaboration’ with Nick Earl of Cisco as his co-author. More recently, Andy has published a third book in this series entitled “Enterprise Cloud Computing: A Strategy Guide for Business and Technology leaders” co-authored with well-known academic Peter Fingar and one of the leading authorities on business process, John Pyke. The book describes the wider business implications of Cloud Computing with the promise of on-demand business innovation. It looks at how businesses trade differently on the web using mash-ups but also the challenges in managing more frequent change, what happens when cloud comes into play in fully fledged operations and how joined up business processes can lead to increased flexibility and sales. In 2009 Andy was voted one of the top 25 most influential CTOs in the world by InfoWorld, and in 2010 his CTOblog was voted best Blog for Business Managers and CIOs for the thirdsecond third year running by Computing Weekly.
