Progressive analysts George O'Connor and Ian Robertson catch up on small and mid-cap tech news. George has been looking at some resilient and upbeat news from smaller less well-known players SRT, Xaar and Microlise and is still recovering from the not too surprising news that Computacenter has not delivered its 20th year of earnings growth.   Gamma results have encouraged Ian and whilst enthused by Judges Scientific as a company he is disappointed by the analyst meeting – where did all the research go?   The leads to reflection on Ian's recent blog comparing listed company micro-cap funds and VC funds, which suggests that something has gone wrong with the small-cap due-diligence / investment decision ‘stack'.  This has knock on impacts across small and mid-cap.  Is more research the answer?

In this episode we talk to Bharti Lim, who is determined that young women should have as many opportunities to work - and claim senior roles - in tech. She says the reason girls often don't consider careers in tech is because they don't see women like them in the industry. She wants to change that, and joins me on the podcast to tell me how she thinks parents can help. 7:00 - Parents will be reassured to know that Bharti's teenage years weren't full of perfect moments, yet she still has a very successful career in tech. 10:00 - Growing up in an Asian family with first generation parents. Experiencing depression and self-harm as a teenager. 15:00 - Masking as a teenage girl with ADHD.19:00 - The value of counselling and psychotherapy to understand yourself and your feelings, particularly to undo unhealthy patterns adopted in teenage years. 27:00 - How to inspire more girls into tech. Some examples of jobs in tech, and why girls might be more tech-savvy than they realise. Why tech isn't a boy's job. 38:00 - How to encourage interest in tech, and why it's more glamorous than you think. Who is Bharti Lim? Bharti is a cyber security strategy manager at Computacenter, who run work experience days. She has worked in the cyber security industry for over 18 years, and has realised the importance of being visible, not only in the workplace, but for the next generation of young women in tech to see that there is no such thing as 'a man's job'.

Bharti was a finalist for the CRN Women in Channel Awards 2021 and a SHE awards winner in 2020.

As more and more businesses consider a move to the Cloud, it's important to weigh up cost management to maximise your usage. So what key things should you be thinking about when looking for a provider?

With decades of knowledge and experience behind him, Paul is on hand to guide you through Cloud cost models and fin ops models, and the subtle differences between the two. Is the I.T. function as we know it a business inhibitor or a business enabler? What capabilities do you need to build in your organisation to adapt to an ever evolving environment? Whether you're currently on the lookout for a Cloud provider, looking to re-assess your strategy or keen to find out how it all works, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

In München wird eine Teststrecke für das futuristische Hochgeschwindigkeitstransportsystem Hyperloop gebaut. In einer 24 m langen Betonröhre soll bald ein Vakuum erzeugt werden, damit eine Transportkapsel in Originalgröße weitgehend ohne Luftwiderstand dort hindurch geschickt werden kann. Die Verantwortlichen wollen dann Aspekte wie Sicherheit, Nachhaltigkeit und Wirtschaftlichkeit des Konzepts erforschen. Dabei sind viele auch ganz grundlegende technische Fragen zum Hyperloop noch immer nicht beantwortet. Diese und die Pläne in München besprechen wir mit Gabriele Semino, der das Projekt an der Technischen Universität München leitet. Wie laufen die Bauarbeiten, wird die Teststrecke bis zum Jahresende fertig? Was genau kann man in solch einem kurzen Teilstück ausprobieren und untersuchen? Welche Ergebnisse hatte die bereits überaus erfolgreiche Arbeit der TU München an Hyperloop-Kapseln? Gibt es über die Teststrecke hinausgehende konkrete Pläne? Kann der Hyperloop wirklich die Eisenbahn ablösen, was ist mit den Fragen zur geringen Kapazität, zum komplexen Streckendesign und -aufbau sowie zu den Kosten? Von den Unternehmen, die an dem Konzept arbeiten, gibt es bislang nicht viel mehr als große Versprechen, wie sehen das die Forscher und Forscherinnen in München?

Wir entschuldigen uns erstmal für die verspätetet Veröffentlichung der dieswöchigen Episode von #9vor9. Bei einer internen Team-Sitzung haben sich Stefan und Lars darauf geeinigt, dass Lars Schuld ist an der Verspätung. Oder war es Stefan...? Wie auch immer: Die Gestaltung des DigitalWorkplace und von #NewWork krankt daran, dass die Gestalter selbst oft noch in ihren Silos verhaftet sind. Das war und ist eine der Thesen von Andreas Stiehler, mit dem sich Stefan und Lars in dieser Episode von #9vor9 unterhalten. Andreas ist als Analyst schon viele Jahre im Thema verhaftet und hat auch aufgrund seiner Studienarbeit u.a., für Hays, Computacenter oder Damovo Einblicke in die Thematik gewonnen. Einig waren wir uns, dass Technologie allein oder bestimmte Produkte alleine nicht den Digital Workplace und Produktivität und Zufriedenheit am Arbeitsplatz ausmachen. Und mehr Produktivität auf Kosten der Mitarbeiter:innen im Homeoffice? Weil die eben noch mehr „schaffen“. Das war ein weiterer Diskussionspunkt in unserem Gespräch und da sind wir ganz schnell beim Thema Automatisierung gelandet und bei der Frage, was menschliche Arbeit bleiben sollte und was es nicht bleiben muss. Viel Spaß beim Hören.

I'm paraphrasing, but Trevor wants to know what we're seeing as the value of this middleman. Trevor said, "Being the middle man is tough and battling the big guys is tough. CDW's, SHI's of the world. The smaller guys have so much more to offer than a price. Price is dictated by the vendor anyways." What do the smaller VARs have to offer that the larger LARs can't offer? How do you go about discovering new security solutions How do we evaluate DevSecOps solutions? Mike hates the term, so I'll say how do we evaluate solutions that will improve the security of the DevOps pipeline? GigaOM Research has a report where they evaluate these solutions, but they also have another report that goes into detail on evaluation criteria. There is a lot of criteria such as seamless integration into tools, process, and dashboards, plus role-based access controls, automation driven by policy, management of secrets, and dependency analysis. What criteria do we look at? How does it change from company to company? And how do we supplement when a solution looks great, but misses a key criteria? "What's Worse?!" A question about DevSecOps. What’s the best way to handle this? Is cloud identity management going to stick? According to David Vellante over at Wikibon and The Cube, the pandemic has forced that shift for everyone and there's probably no turning back. For cloud-first companies this was business as usual before the pandemic. But what about all the new businesses that are going to the cloud and doing business with you. It's a very broad field and there are a lot of industry players, so actually skip the obvious stuff and just mention the items that have become sticking points or are still in need of development. Is this the best solution The "X" in XDR extends traditional endpoint detection and response or EDR to also include network and cloud sensors. We talked about this on our other podcast, Defense in Depth, and one of the issues came up was the disruptive nature of XDR. How much was real. David Thomas, Computacenter, said, "The aspiration to get fully integrated insights of all your tools and create the ultimate feedback loop responsive system is a worthy aim... Current vendor XDR pitches are up selling opportunities but customers have a challenge to adopt or shift to a single vendor platform due to a vast array of displace/replace challenges. It’s a great marketing story but the pragmatic reality is it’s a tough and long journey to realise the platform / single (pain) pane promise, unless you are a greenfield organisation." Is XDR a worthy goal and what is the marketing hype buyers should question?  

Parler de l'IT et plus particulièrement de stockage et ne pas évoquer à un moment l'Open Source serait une très grosse erreur… L'Open Source est partout et omniprésent dans les projets et infrastructures. Il est désormais incontournable. Pourquoi ? Est-ce vrai ?... Venez écouter nos invités du jour, tous passionnés dans leur domaine. Dans la bonne humeur et le sérieux nous tentons d'évoquer et de décrypter certaines composantes de ce sujet.

In today’s show, we explore Computacenter in detail, looking at what exactly the company does and diving into the 3 graduate schemes that they offer across sales, project management and business management. We break down each of these schemes, looking at what each entails, the attributes and characteristics they look for and what you can expect at each stage of the application process. We cover why you shouldn’t worry too much about the initial online application, but why you do need to focus on the recorded video interview. We explore the face to face video stage and why you shouldn’t be surprised if there is a current graduate there who is also interviewing you. We go through what you can expect in the assessment centre, and why Computacenter is like no other graduate scheme, in that you can look forward to meeting the Managing Director at this stage. Now it doesn’t matter if you have never heard of Computacenter before, they are a company which are going places, and in this interview, I’m sure you will be impressed by the onus which their senior leaders put on finding and keeping graduate talent.

In today's season finale Marc gets back in touch with the Group CEO of Computacenter Mike Norris. They catch up at the end of the lockdown (having originally spoken in April) to look at the state of the IT channel and the wider UK economy. Marc and Mike also look at the impact of the governments furlough scheme and what the 'bounce-back' might look like. Marc also discusses the famous Computacenter sales kick offs and the impact of the CC FMES jacket on helping to build a successful culture.

You hear it thrown around quite regularly this statement that sales is a numbers game; but how true is that, what is important to consider when conveying or believing in this statement? Numbers are what we use to measure success most of the time and place our own self belief and confidence in, but why? This was one of the key talking points on this week's episode, alongside; what kind of environment needs to be created to help sales people thrive and how sellers can become more aligned to the customer's needs.  To discuss this I'm joined by Bethany Ayers & Pete Crosby. They bring a wealth of insights, experience and stories from their career so far and raise some interesting angles on the topics above.  Bethany is Chief Customer Officer at artificial intelligence (AI) company Peak, one of the fastest-growing tech businesses in the UK. Before joining Peak, Bethany worked as an advisor to high growth startups such as Codility and Cloud IQ, primarily in the SaaS space. She has a superb track record leading tech businesses, with five years of experience as SVP Strategy at NewVoiceMedia where she oversaw strategy, sales operations and product marketing. She has also held strategic consulting roles with Mimecast and Getronics, and sales/strategy roles at both Computacenter and the Financial Times. Bethany acts as an expert advisor for Notion Capital and is a member of the London Revenue Collective. She regularly writes and speaks on topics including AI, SaaS metrics and women in tech. Pete is a 4x successful scale up sales leader, most recently as CRO at Ometria, who Deloitte placed in the Top 10 growth businesses in the UK with revenue acceleration above 3000%. Prior to Ometria, Pete ran revenues at Viadeo from Series A to IPO, and took Triptease from $2m to $10m ARR and a successful Series B in just 18 months. Pete is one of the 3 founding members of the London Revenue Collective, a private members club for senior revenue leaders which now has more than 200 paying members. He is also a non-exec sitting on the board of Kluster, a seed stage revenue analytics start-up which just closed a $1m round.

DATEV provides information services to ~2.5 million payrolling, accounting, and tax clients. Given the sensitivity of the personal and financial data that our clients process, DATAEV decided to establish a SOC to secure our clients' information, and we put Splunk at the core of its operations. In this session we will discuss four key elements relevant to building a successful SOC with Splunk. We'll first discuss how we formed our SOC and orchestrated its activities internally. We'll then discuss how we use MITRE's ATT&CK™ framework to prioritize activities, how we spread our SOC's security knowledge to all relevant groups at DATEV, and how we use Splunk to create real-time situational awareness for different SOC customers, for stakeholders, and for management.

Ahir es va crear oficialment l’Oficina pública de la llengua catalana. Al curs d’una assemblea general seguida d’un primer consell d’administració que van tenir lloc a la universitat de Perpinyà, es va instal·lar aquest organisme que tindrà per objectiu principal la defensa i promoció de la llengua catalana. Ahir es va reunir el comitè tècnic encarregat de decidir de les obertures i tancaments de classes després de la reentrada. L'inspector d'acadèmia, reunit amb els sindicats, va finalment decidir obrir 9 classes per alleugerir les classes més carregades del departament. Pero enguany no s'ha atribuit cap més professor suplementari. Per tant cada obertura de classe implicava un tancament. Per això 8 classes seran tancades i un lloc de substitut serà suprimit. Indignació a les xarxes socials després que diversos comerços nord-catalans denunciessin pressions per part d’un grup espanyolista. La Botiga Visca de Perpinyà, que comercialitza objectes relacionats amb Catalunya, va rebre ahir un correu electrònic que demana la retirada tots els productes en els quals es pugui veure una estelada, així com la samarreta de la Diada. En la mateixa línia el restaurant la Vigatane de Canet també ha rebut una petició de retirar una publicitat en la qual es veu una estelada. Aquests mails són enviats per "Catalunya Peuple d'Espagne" una entitat basada a Suïssa i que fa uns mesos ja va demanar al magatzem Leclerc de retirar objectes amb l'estelada. El ministre de cultura francès, Franck Riester, serà avui a Perpinyà per visitar les exposicions del VISA per la imatge. El festival de fotoperiodisme ha esdevingut una cita habitual pels ministres de cultura. S'espera que Franck Riester també es reuneixi amb els diputats de La République en Marche de Catalunya Nord. La companyia de servei informàtic Computacenter ha confirmat la seua instal·lació al Centre del Món de Perpinyà. L’empresa ha invertit 1 milió d’€ ens els seus nous locals. 35 llocs de treball seran creats per començar i s’espera que d’aquí a 18 mesos s’hagin creat 150 llocs de treball. La companyia es va presentar ahir a Perpinyà en presència de la Presidenta de la regió i del departament, així com el batlle de la vila. Dos incendis van cremar ahir a la plana del Rosselló. El primer es va declarar en el jardí d’una casa de Sant Esteve. 400m2 van cremar sense amenaçar el veïnat. Un altre incendi ahir al vespre, el foc es va declarar a la vora de la Tet, al barri de Sant Assiscle de Perpinyà. 6000m2 van cremar, sobretot canyes i matolls. 56 bombers van ser bomilitzats per apagar l’incendi. La reivindicació per salvar el Tren de mercaderies de Sant Carles ocuparà avui la Plaça Rigau de Perpinyà. El Comitè de sosteniment organitza la projecció d’un film sobre pantalla gegant a la Borsa del Treball. Just abans hi haurà un pica-pica per tots els assistents. A l’acte d’avui hi participarà Laurent Brun, secretari general de la federació CGT de xeminots. El Tribunal Suprem Espanyol ha concedit el permís per sortir de la presó a Jordi Cuixart per poder ser present en el naixement del seu quart fill. Estem a menys d’una setmana de la Diada de l’11 de setembre i les inscripcions a la gran manifestació van augmentant. Enguany la manifestació independentista de l’Onze de Setembre organitzada per l’ANC i amb el suport d’Òmnium Cultural i l’AMI, dibuixarà un estel al voltant de la Plaça Espanya de Barcelona. Els organitzadors encara criden a la mobilització. Fins ara ja s’han inscrit 180 000 persones, s’han venut més de 200 000 samarretes i s’han reservat uns 700 autocars. Si voleu assistir a la Diada, encara podeu apuntar-vos als autobusos que sortiran de Perpinyà i del Voló. Les inscripcions es fan a la pàgina web de Catnord.cat.

La investigació de l’assassinat de la jove habitant d’Estagell trobada morta al cementiri ara fa un mes continua. La gendarmeria fa una crida per intentar trobar testimonis que hagin vist la víctima la nit del 7 de juliol. La gendarmeria anima tota persona a transmetre fotos o vídeos de la festa dels bombers a la qual la víctima va assistir. El passat dimarts els duaners de Perpinyà van trobar 320 cartons de tabac durant un control a l’autopista A9. També es van descobrir 74 quilos de tabac per fumar amb xixa. El valor total de la mercaderia ha estat valorat en 40 000€. El conductor, un home del Gard, ha estat detingut per la gendarmeria. Una empresa anglesa del servei informàtic per empreses i col·lectivitats s’installarà a Perpinyà d’aquí finals d’any. Es tracta de l’empresa Computacenter que anuncia la creació de 150 llocs de treball. La primera fase de reclutament es farà al setembre. Aquest gegant de la informàtica tindrà els seus locals al Centre del Món que trobarà finalment un poc d’activitat. La pressió que posen l’ANC i Omnium sobre els partits independentistes per animar-los a trobar el camí de la unió, no sembla tenir efecte. Joan Tardà d’ERC va criticar la presa de posició de l’ANC dient que s’estava “equivocant” actuant com a “contrapoder” i abandonant el seu “ADN” aglutinador de l’independentisme. La decisió de l’Assemblea de no convidar els representants polítics a la zona VIP de la manifestació de l’11 de setembre ha provocat un rebuig de part dels representants polítics. Ahir Elisenda Paluzie, presidenta de l’ANC va insistir que “l’essència de l’Assemblea és condicionar l’agenda política” mitjançant la pressió als partits “si no fan coses coherents per la independència”. El Consell Departamental del Vauclusa vol suprimir els panells amb els noms dels vilatges en Provençal per deixar només el nom francès. Ahir les viles i vilatges del Vauclusa van rebre correus enviats per la col·lectivitat reclamant que es treguin tots els panells que acompanyen la retolació del nom del vilatge en francès. Per tant el panell en llengua occitana és directament concernit per aquesta mesura. Diversos batlles del departament ja fa mesos que lluiten per mantenir la senyalització en occità. Des del col·lectiu Prouvènço, que defensa la identitat provençal, han escrit al President del Consell Departamental. Li han recordat que el Tribunal Administratiu de Montpeller, l’any 2012, va autoritzar la senyalització en llengua occitana a Vilanòva de Magalona a l'Erau. Apolit si demà teniu previst viatjar des de l’aeroport de Barcelona, un moviment de vaga posarà l’aeroport en servei mínim amb diversos vols anul·lats.
