Dying of a snakebite or losing oxen to starvation or drowning might not sound like the best inspiration, but it’s exactly what started Jeff Cole on his pursuit of technology. “I used to play the Oregon Trail game in grade school, and that is what really hooked me on computers,” Cole says. “Did I know […]

John Guillot – CRC Global Solutions
His crew spends many an hour coding and even more time just interacting with users at CRC Global Solutions. As CIO John Guillot emphasizes, the human element can’t separate from the technology. Besides, there’s often some idea on the warehouse floor that might help CRC provide supply-chain management and logistics solutions, construction management and product […]
Angel Gonzalez – Wyrick Robbins
Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, Wyrick Robbins’s work-from-home solution was limited to Citrix and didn’t allow all of the firm’s attorneys and staff work remotely. The Raleigh, North Carolina-based law firm had always valued in-person interaction, he explains, and didn’t have a solution to accommodate that interaction virtually. When the pandemic made working from home […]
Matt Miller – CyberCoders
Looking for that dream job, or the dream candidate to fill an opening? Cyrus can make it happen, says Matt Miller of CyberCoders. Miller, the company’s chief technology officer, has known Cyrus for almost two decades. He should—he created the recruiting software platform after joining the company in 2004, guiding Cyrus from infancy through adolescence. […]
Samantha Lofton Moss – Ice Miller LLP

In fact, Samantha Lofton Moss, of the firm Ice Miller LLP, says there are attorneys at the firm who’d sooner tap into online resources than unearth hard-bound volumes in legal libraries. As Ice […]
Brandon Conick – Conference Technologies Inc.
Conference Technologies Inc., headquartered in the St. Louis suburb of Maryland Heights, Missouri, was not the only business in high demand as the COVID-19 pandemic arrived in the U.S. in spring 2020. As providers of audio-visual technology in a world suddenly going remote, CTI offered the systems and equipment needed to keep companies operating—even as […]
Art Piwcio – Security Central
It’s an essential system people hope never gets used. That small panel of lights, circuits and a keypad protect a home or business, sending an alarm in case of a break-in, fire or other emergency. When that happens, time is of the essence in alerting fire, police or rescue departments about the emergency. Security Central […]
Cortney Thompson – Lunavi
In tech speak, it’s called a lift and shift—the moving of an existing application and data into cloud infrastructure with little or no redesign. It’s one of several options for companies that prefer not to maintain a data center. But there being no single approach to the cloud in general, a company might need the […]
Marc Knoop – Traffix
There’s a pit stop coming for Traffix, the largest provider of freight arrangement services in Canada. As Chief Technology Officer Marc Knoop explains, that doesn’t mean trucks are coming off the road. Instead Traffix is introducing PitStop, a new portal that can be used by customers, carriers and staff to share details about shipments, invoices […]
Pat Patterson – LegalShield
You were out running errands, nearly done and headed home. Then came the fender bender in the parking lot. But beyond the crunching noise of the collision and some dents covered with paint streaks from the other car, this seems more an annoyance than a life-changing event. After all, both of you drove away from […]
