Gerard (Ged) Roberts, Business Technology Manager, Evangelist and Enterprise Architect. I have been working in Technology and Engineering for over 20 years in a wide range of industries from Shipping (originally and a long time ago), to IT Consulting and more recently General IT Management. At the moment, I am focusing on Enterprise Architecture, Technology Management, Cloud Computing, IT Strategy, Architecture Governance and and IT Portfolio Management. In short, the functions most often associated with the office of the CIO.

After several years managing several different practices for the largest Australian Management & Technology consulting firm I have recently moved onto a role as Head of Technology for a Joint Venture funded, early stage start up. We are currently running in stealth mode so I can't say too much further at the moment but should be able to reveal more in Q1 2012.

I currently live in Sydney, Australia and outside of work, I enjoy the lifestyle that Sydney has to offer with my family on Sydney's North Shore.
