Det er tre spørsmål som driver årets CIO Analytics-rapport: Hva gjør virksomheter som lykkes? Hvordan skaper man reell verdi med AI? Og hvordan møter man et trusselbilde som bare blir mer krevende?Årets IT-rapport bygger på svar fra nærmere 1500 IT-ledere og beslutningstakere i Nord-Europa. Rapporten viser at forventningene til IT-lederen ikke bare har økt, de har endret karakter. Strategisk tenkning veier tyngre enn noensinne. Helhetsforståelse topper listen over hva som kjennetegner en god IT-leder. Rollen har beveget seg langt fra det tekniske.I dette opptaket fra lanseringen diskuterer vi hva det betyr i praksis, og om rollen har blitt umulig å fylle. Vi snakker også om AI-adopsjonen som skjøt fart uten at verdiskapingen fulgte etter. Flertallet måler heller ikke effekten av det de investerer i. Hva med sikkerhet? Tre av fire øver ikke regelmessig på beredskapsplanene. Dette skjer i en tid der sikkerhet er det aller viktigste fokusområdet.Gjester er Mali Hole Skogen, teknologi- og bærekraftsdirektør i TEK Norge, Siri Riis Borhaug, Country Manager i IBM Norge, og Ole Petter Saxrud, adm. direktør i Atea.

Read Full Transcript Welcome to The Buzz from ChannelBuzz.ca, I’m Robert Dutt, today is Wednesday, May 27th, and here’s what’s happening in the channel today. Yesterday, ASUS Canada announced the appointment of Vernon Coutinho as Country Manager for its System Business Group. The announcement, which came just ahead of the ASUS Business Summit in Toronto, reflects the company’s long-term growth ambitions in the Canadian commercial market. Coutinho, who brings nearly 30 years of industry experience, will oversee strategy and performance across consumer, gaming, and commercial segments. For Canadian MSPs, this signals a deepening of the ASUS partner ecosystem locally. The company is actively accelerating its focus on AI-ready commercial devices, bringing its consumer DNA into the workplace. According to ASUS, the goal is to elevate the business laptop experience by delivering devices that are secure, manageable, and enjoyable to use. Also on Tuesday, 7AI announced the availability of PLAID ELITE, a fully managed, AI-native security operations solution. The platform combines autonomous investigation by AI agents with expert oversight from 7AI security engineers, delivering a continuous, follow-the-sun security outcome. The company is positioning the tool as a way for organizations to protect their environments without needing to build or scale an internal operations team. What makes this relevant for the channel is the service model. Rather than relying entirely on human analyst shifts, PLAID ELITE’s coverage scales with investigation volume through agentic AI. 7AI noted that agents are now autonomously completing the majority of investigations end-to-end, allowing partners to drive security outcomes through technology rather than headcount. Cybersecurity platform Guardz has appointed former Pax8 executive Danni Munro as its new Director of Channel Sales for the Australia and New Zealand region. While this is an international appointment, Munro’s background in scaling Pax8’s operations underscores a broader channel push by Guardz. The company is actively deepening its partner relationships to meet accelerating demand from small and medium-sized businesses facing rising ransomware threats. This move highlights a continuing global trend where cybersecurity vendors are relying on seasoned channel veterans to help MSPs deliver consolidated security services to clients who lack the internal expertise to manage threats independently. In Brief – TechnoPlanet’s ChannelNEXT conference kicks off tomorrow in Toronto to address pressing partner challenges. ManageEngine says its new autonomous AI push will streamline IT operations for managed service providers. Global Startups is set to host the Tech Builders 2026 conference in Toronto on June 16. Mitsubishi HC Capital Canada is urging the channel to embed financing into partnerships to offset complex technology costs. The CRTC has ordered streaming platforms like Netflix and Apple TV to boost their spending on Canadian content. Full details and links in the show notes or the blog post. Later today on In The Channel, we will be airing our conversation with Coro CEO Joe Sykora to discuss security stacks and the 2026 threat landscape. And if you haven’t heard it yet, be sure to check out yesterday’s episode featuring Nigel Brown, CTO of Microserve, for a practitioner’s take on AI readiness and tokenomics from Dell Technologies World. That’s how we’re seeing the headlines today. I’m Robert Dutt for ChannelBuzz.ca, thanks for listening. Have a great day.

Maria Fossarello est arrivée en France à 17 ans avec un rêve : bosser à la Commission européenne. Quinze ans plus tard, elle est VP RevOps de Welcome to the Jungle après sept ans chez BlaBlaCar (marketing puis Head of Paid Channel global, 20M€ de budget sur 21 pays) et un passage chez Qonto (Head of RevOps). Entre les deux, beaucoup de portes fermées au nez. La Commission européenne d'abord. Innocent ensuite, où elle a candidaté avec une photo d'elle et son smoothie préféré (résultat : réponse automatique). BlaBlaCar Londres, où on lui a proposé un poste de Country Manager qu'elle ne comprenait pas. Tout ce qui rend son parcours intéressant aujourd'hui s'est joué dans la façon dont elle a transformé ces refus en énergie, puis dans la façon dont elle a appris à prendre des sujets que personne ne réclamait dans ses boîtes successives. Cet épisode, c'est une plongée dans le quotidien d'un VP RevOps en scale-up, mais c'est surtout un manuel de carrière pour toutes les Ops qui veulent grandir avec leur boîte plutôt que d'attendre la promotion suivante.Ce que tu vas apprendre dans cet épisode :Comment monter en responsabilité sans titre officiel : sortir de sa fiche de poste, prendre les sujets vacants, et rester volontairement large pour multiplier les opportunités.Pourquoi un VP RevOps doit gagner la confiance de ses pairs (les autres VPs) autant que de sa propre équipe.La méthode 1:1 que Maria a affinée année après année : commencer par l'humain "comment ça va ?", refuser les 1:1 où elle parle toute seule, et pourquoi le peer coaching bat la progress review.Ce qu'il faut tuer en priorité dans une scale-up française : les meetings récurrents à plus de 6 personnes qui durent depuis trop longtemps, et l'illusion que travailler 12 heures par jour rend productif.La différence concrète entre un VP RevOps et un CRO en scale-up : Maria détaille son organigramme chez Welcome (CEO → CRO → 4 VPs en France et UK) et ce que ça change dans son quotidien.Sa position assumée d'anti-framework : pourquoi copier-coller un playbook entre deux contextes ne fonctionne presque jamais, et comment elle pense la priorisation par quarter à la place.Notes complètes, ressources et captures de l'épisode : [lien] Pour aller plus loin :Gemba (terme japonais) : aller sur le terrain avec son équipe pour comprendre un sujet complexe ensemble, pratique reprise de Qonto.Modjo et Dust : outils utilisés par Maria chez WTTJ pour faire des analyses approfondies sur les transcripts de calls (pricing, playbooks, objections).Hébergé par Ausha.

Energised Futures, Centrica's in-house research and innovation incubator, has partnered with Panasonic in a new pilot designed to advance intelligent heat-pump control. Demonstrating how collaboration across manufacturers, installers and technology innovators can accelerate the shift to smarter, more efficient low carbon heating. Heat Pump Trial The research has explored the automation and optimisation of heat pumps in Dublin homes as part of an EU funded Horizon-2020 programme – the DEDALUS project – to develop user-centered demand side response (DSR) systems. By combining technical innovation from Energised Futures with Panasonic's manufacturing expertise alongside local installer partner Mos Mechanical's on the ground installer insight, the project reflects the full lifecycle of heat pump deployment. Energised Futures is creating bespoke digital twins for all participating homes and remotely controlling each Panasonic heat pump with predictive algorithms to deliver optimum comfort and efficiency. Building on the success of its earlier MESH project, funded by the Department of Energy Security and Net Zero, the team has developed advanced control algorithms to enable the Panasonic heat pumps to participate in Demand Response. The system prioritises heating the home and hot water tank when electricity is cheap and low-carbon, while preserving occupant comfort: reducing heat pump operating costs and emissions and simultaneously supporting grid balancing and integration of renewables. Insights from the Dublin trial will feed directly into complementary pilots in Austria, Denmark, Italy, Spain and Romania, helping to build a holistic understanding of how smart heating and flexibility solutions work across different climates, housing types and energy systems. The overall programme wrapped at the end of April, following which the combined results from Dublin and the other EU pilots will be analysed and shared. Ben Krikler, PhD, Head of Energised Futures and Director of Research & Innovation, Centrica, emphasised the opportunity ahead: "Heat pumps have incredible potential, but that potential isn't being fully realised" "By combining advanced controls, predictive algorithms, and real-world data, we can make heat pumps smarter, more efficient, and more rewarding for households by delivering comfort at the lowest running cost while also helping to balance the grid and reduce emissions." Underscoring the wider benefits of the project, Laurence Cox, Country Manager for Panasonic Heating & Cooling Ireland said: 'This project highlights the real-world benefits of heat pump technology, from reduced energy costs and improved comfort to lower carbon emissions. We are proud to be working alongside Centrica and MOS Mechanical to help underline the growing importance of proven, low-carbon technologies in supporting the transition to a more sustainable built environment." The pilot adopts a user-centric, co-creation approach to understand what drives or hinders participation in demand response, including factors such as comfort, data privacy, and energy literacy. Supported by a robust social science framework and drawing on behavioural science, motivation theories, and socio-economic insights, the project actively involves participants through workshops, segmentation analysis, and interface testing. MSM Renewable installed the heat pumps and worked directly with participating households, giving them practical support and helping ensure the trial reflected real-world installer and customer experience. Reflecting on the trial, Mick O'Shea, Founder & CEO of Mos Mechanical's said: "Heat pumps are evolving quickly, and projects like this make sure installers stay ahead" "Hands on experience with the latest systems gives us the confidence to show customers how efficient heat pumps really are. It also proves that when the industry works together, the technology delivers more for households — and opens new opportunities for installers." As the progra...

Todos los ecommerce hablan de tráfico, de captación, de logística o de inteligencia artificial. Pero hay una parte mucho menos visible que seguramente esté afectando a las ventas más de lo que parece, y es el momento del pago. Ese instante en el que el usuario ya ha decidido comprar, mete la tarjeta, pulsa el botón final… Y aun así la operación puede fallar, encarecerse o incluso bloquearse sin que la tienda online entienda bien por qué.Ahora puedes crear y configurar fácilmente tu propia tienda online en solo unas horas sin conocimientos de programación y con todas las funcionalidades incluidas que necesitas para crecer. Haz clic aquí para empezar tus 14 días de prueba gratis sin meter tarjeta de crédito.Para hablar de todo ello he invitado a Jorge Sorial, Country Manager de Craftgate en España, una fintech especializada en orquestación de pagos que ayuda a los ecommerce a recuperar pagos que suelen perderse y a optimizar una parte del negocio que muchas veces se deja en piloto automático y no se presta la atención que merece. Y te prometo que se pierde mucho dinero y muchas ventas por ese agujero. Hoy con Jorge hablamos de cosas como:De cuánto dinero puede estar perdiendo un ecommerce en el checkout sin darse cuenta.De qué es realmente la orquestación de pagos y por qué no es lo mismo que tener un único TPV.De cómo se puede recuperar una parte de los pagos rechazados.Por qué dos operaciones aparentemente iguales pueden tener costes y riesgo de fraude muy distintos.De cómo afectan los pagos a la expansión internacional, a la conversión y también al margen del negocio.Y muchas otras cosas que te cuento en este episodio, como siempre, sin filtros.Patrocinador del podcast Siteground: https://stgrnd.co/esecommerce Web sneaker: https://pychon.comWeb: https://ecosistemaecommerce.com/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCE2zroaDzTVZRwNOh5Ma9cg/?sub_confirmation=1LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/javierlopezrod/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/Ecosistema-Ecommerce/61550625909016/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ecosistemaecommTik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ecosistemaecommerceInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ecosistemaecommerceSi quieres patrocinar este programa, escríbenos a jlopez@ecosistemaecommerce.com

"The amount of time you need to spend listening in Japan is very high." "You have to turn up your EQ sensitivity or your EQ radar very, very high." "No matter what, love it." "Feedback should be ninety percent positive." "Leadership is achieving the organisation's goal by maximising the potential of your team." Paul Kraft is the Country Manager for Haribo in Japan and a seasoned food and beverage executive whose career has crossed global brands, entrepreneurial ventures, and distributor-led market development. His relationship with Japan began when he first visited in 1991 on a school trip after studying finance and economics, and he later returned to Osaka to teach English before building his early career in the United States as a product and brand manager in the frozen food sector. Starbucks then recruited him to establish its consumer packaged goods office in Tokyo, where his team expanded the brand beyond coffee shops into convenience store cup coffee, canned coffee, and dry coffee formats. He later launched Honey Baked Ham in Japan through an omnichannel strategy covering food service, retail, and online sales, before joining Nespresso to lead the business-to-business group serving hotels, restaurants, and off-premise clients. At Haribo, Kraft became the company's first person on the ground in Japan, guiding the distributor, shaping strategy, and acting as the bridge between the Japanese market and the global organisation. His career arc reflects adaptability in Japan: learning when to push, when to listen, when to use nemawashi, how to reduce uncertainty, and how to lead through consensus, precedent, relationship depth, and trust. Paul Kraft's leadership journey in Japan is a practical study in how global executives must adapt ambition, speed, and commercial logic to a business culture that places deep value on patience, consensus, trust, and emotional intelligence. His connection with Japan began in the late 1980s and early 1990s, when Japanese business influence was highly visible internationally. Toyota, Japanese management methods, and major Japanese investments overseas created a sense that understanding Japan was essential for future business leaders. Kraft studied finance and economics, visited Japan for the first time in 1991, and fell in love with the country. After graduating, he returned to Osaka to teach English before moving back to the United States and entering the food business. His early food career gave him broad commercial exposure. He worked as a product and brand manager for a privately held frozen food company, handling brands across categories such as ice cream, pizza, and frozen egg rolls. He also gained experience in research, brand management, and mergers and acquisitions. The turning point came when Starbucks recruited him to return to Japan and set up a consumer packaged goods office in Tokyo. Within three months, he sold his cars, sold his house, gave away his tools, and moved to Japan. It was a decisive commitment to the market. At Starbucks, Kraft's team was responsible for everything outside the coffee shops, including convenience store cup coffee, canned coffee, different drinks, and packaged coffee products. Japan's vast convenience store network meant the business could scale dramatically. At one point, he believed Starbucks may have been selling more cups of coffee outside the stores than inside them. Yet the opportunity came with culture shock. Kraft encountered long, meandering meetings with Japanese partners where the purpose was not necessarily to decide, but to discuss. Coming from a Western business environment that valued agendas, pre-reads, data, speed, and explicit outcomes, he found this difficult. Partners might resist data, avoid firm conclusions, or reject new ideas because they had no precedent. This introduced one of Kraft's central leadership lessons: frustration management is a business skill in Japan. He admits that in his early years he sometimes relied too much on visible frustration or forceful leadership. He learned that anger in Japan is not usually interpreted as strength. It is often seen as weak self-control, poor maturity, low self-awareness, and a failure to read the group. In a culture shaped by uncertainty avoidance and consensus, the leader who becomes known as a hothead loses influence. Kraft's next major chapter, Honey Baked Ham, tested his entrepreneurial instincts. He cold-called the CEO of the American family-owned chain and convinced the company to support a Japan launch. The concept was unfamiliar in a market where honey-baked ham did not have obvious precedent. Kraft built an omnichannel model covering food service, a physical store, and online sales. He worked with local financial backers, freelancers, part-time staff, and a very lean team. The leadership challenge was not just selling a product, but selling belief. To attract employees and customers, he had to tell the story of the brand, offer the product directly, and reduce the perceived risk of joining or buying into something new. In Japan, he found that new ideas often need a "Japanese stamp of approval". For Honey Baked Ham, that stamp came from the New Otani Hotel. Once the product was accepted by a respected, traditional, luxury Japanese hotel, the market could interpret it differently. It was no longer merely a foreign idea. It had local legitimacy. This is decision intelligence in a Japanese setting: understanding that data alone is not enough if social proof, trust signals, respected reference points, and emotional confidence are missing. At Nespresso, Kraft moved from entrepreneurial uncertainty into a highly structured global organisation. Nespresso, as part of Nestlé, had strong processes, operational discipline, monthly reviews, and clear accountability systems. Kraft led the business-to-business group, serving hotels, restaurants, and off-premise clients. There, he focused on weekly one-on-ones, feedback, and structure. He maintained regular conversations with direct reports, taking notes, sharing updates, listening to their updates, and discussing future deliverables. He also saw the value of monthly operational reviews where commitments were visible and specific: who would do what by when. Red, yellow, and green status tracking created accountability, but it also required leaders to prevent people from setting themselves up to fail. At Haribo, Kraft now leads largely through influence. Haribo had existed in Japan for decades through distributors, but Kraft became the first person representing the company directly on the ground. His role is to guide the distributor, shape strategy, interpret the Japanese market for the global organisation, and influence outcomes without necessarily controlling every lever. This is leadership through relationship rather than hierarchy. For Kraft, the answer lies in patience, small-group influence, and nemawashi. Large meetings with many distributor representatives are rarely where minds are changed. The real work happens in smaller conversations, offline follow-ups, and repeated explanations of why something matters. Across the interview, Kraft's leadership philosophy is consistent. He advocates weekly one-on-ones, positive feedback, careful listening, written notes, high EQ, and learning Japanese. He believes leaders should look for people doing things right and tell them specifically. He also believes leaders should encourage initiative, especially in Japan, where proposing an idea can itself be a courageous act. Ultimately, Kraft defines leadership as achieving the organisation's goal by maximising the potential of the team. In Japan, that means leading with EQ rather than ego, using structure without crushing people, building consensus without losing accountability, and understanding that influence is earned through patience, presence, and trust. Q&A Summary What makes leadership in Japan unique? Leadership in Japan is unique because authority alone is rarely enough to move people, partners, or organisations. Kraft's experience shows that Japan places heavy emphasis on consensus, precedent, trust, and the emotional readiness of the group. A meeting may not be designed to make a decision in the Western sense. It may be designed to exchange views, test reactions, identify resistance, and prepare the ground for a later decision. This can frustrate executives who arrive expecting agendas, data, pre-reads, and immediate outcomes. However, in Japan, the visible meeting is often only one part of the decision-making process. The real work may occur before and after the formal meeting. This is where nemawashi becomes essential. Rather than forcing a decision in front of a large group, effective leaders work privately with stakeholders, listen to their concerns, explain the reason behind the proposal, and create alignment before asking for visible agreement. In some organisations, this may connect to formal mechanisms such as ringi-sho, where written proposals circulate for approval. Even when ringi-sho is not used formally, the underlying cultural logic remains: people want to avoid surprises, protect relationships, and reduce uncertainty before committing. Why do global executives struggle? Global executives struggle in Japan when they assume that leadership methods which worked elsewhere will automatically work here. Kraft describes coming from a Western environment where meetings were purposeful, decisions were expected, and data played a central role. In Japan, he encountered long discussions without agendas, partners who were not prepared to discuss data, and resistance to ideas because they had never been done before. For a Western leader, this can look inefficient or evasive. For Japanese counterparts, it may reflect caution, uncertainty avoidance, and the desire to avoid exposing the group to visible failure. Another reason global executives struggle is emotional pacing. Kraft admits that his own frustration management was a multi-year learning process. Early in his Japan career, he sometimes believed that a leader had to pound the table, push harder, or force things to happen. Over time, he realised that visible anger usually weakens credibility in Japan. It may be interpreted as poor self-control, low maturity, insufficient self-awareness, or an inability to operate inside the group. Leaders who become known as hotheads lose influence. Is Japan truly risk-averse? Kraft's experience suggests that Japan is not simply risk-averse; it is highly sensitive to uncertainty, precedent, and failure visibility. People may resist new ideas not because they dislike innovation, but because they cannot forecast the outcome, cannot point to a precedent, or cannot see how failure will be managed. His Starbucks orange mocha example illustrates this clearly. Even with data and enthusiasm, Japanese counterparts resisted because they could not forecast something that had never been done before. The absence of precedent made the idea difficult to accept. At Honey Baked Ham, Kraft had to reduce uncertainty on multiple fronts. He needed employees to believe in a small start-up-like venture, customers to accept an unfamiliar product, and business partners to see legitimacy in the concept. He did this through storytelling, product sampling, financial backing, and visible local validation. The New Otani Hotel became a crucial Japanese stamp of approval. Once a respected Japanese institution accepted the product, the perceived risk fell. This is a useful lesson for leaders: in Japan, risk is often managed through social proof, credibility markers, and trusted reference points. Decision intelligence in Japan requires more than analysis. It requires understanding how people feel safe enough to act. What leadership style actually works? The leadership style that works in Japan is patient, structured, emotionally intelligent, and specific. Kraft repeatedly returns to the importance of weekly one-on-ones. He used them not as casual check-ins, but as disciplined leadership routines. He wrote down the person's name, the date, his update, their update, the future focus, and the deliverables. Over time, this built trust and created a rhythm of communication. In Japan, where employees may hesitate to speak up in larger forums, one-on-ones provide a safer space for concerns, ideas, and coaching. Kraft also emphasises feedback, especially positive feedback. He argues that feedback should be ninety percent positive. This does not mean avoiding problems. It means noticing specific behaviours that should continue and reinforcing them. At Nespresso, Kraft also saw the value of structured accountability. Monthly operational reviews asked who would do what by when, using red-yellow-green status tracking. This helped cut through ambiguity and group responsibility. The most effective style is not soft consensus or hard command. It is a combination of empathy, structure, clarity, and support. How can technology help? Technology can help leadership in Japan when it reduces uncertainty, improves shared understanding, and supports better decision-making. Kraft's career points repeatedly to the importance of data, forecasting, operational reviews, and structured follow-up. At Starbucks, he wanted data-driven conversations with partners. At Nespresso, process and dashboards made accountability visible. At Haribo, he works in a market where convenience stores are highly sophisticated and retail execution depends on understanding channels, forecasts, and consumer behaviour. Modern tools such as retail analytics, AI-supported forecasting, digital twins, scenario planning dashboards, and decision intelligence platforms can be powerful in Japan because they allow teams to test ideas before committing. In a high-consensus culture, technology can create a shared factual base. It can help people compare options, visualise consequences, and reduce the fear of the unknown. Digital twins, for example, can allow leaders to model supply chain, distribution, retail placement, or product launch scenarios without requiring immediate real-world commitment. This can lower emotional resistance and make decisions feel safer. However, technology cannot replace trust. In Japan, data may be necessary, but it is rarely sufficient. Leaders must still explain the why, conduct nemawashi, listen to objections, and create confidence among stakeholders. Does language proficiency matter? Language proficiency matters in Japan because it signals respect, commitment, and seriousness. Kraft says leaders should try to learn Japanese, even if they do not become fluent. Fluency helps a leader catch nuance, understand emotional tone, and communicate directly with employees, partners, and distributors. It also helps reduce the distance that can exist between a foreign executive and a Japanese team. In a market where trust is built slowly, the effort to learn the language can itself become a stamp of approval. That said, Kraft does not suggest that language ability alone makes someone an effective leader. A fluent but impatient leader can still fail. A non-fluent but humble, consistent, and respectful leader can still build trust. The key is effort. Trying to learn Japanese shows that the executive is not merely passing through. It shows they are willing to adapt to the local context, not simply demand that the local context adapt to them. What's the ultimate leadership lesson? The ultimate leadership lesson from Kraft's experience is that leaders in Japan must maximise people's potential by building trust, reducing uncertainty, and communicating with discipline. His definition is clear: leadership is achieving the organisation's goal by maximising the potential of the team. That requires more than setting targets. It requires creating the conditions in which people can contribute, speak up, try ideas, receive feedback, and accept accountability without fear of humiliation. Kraft's career shows that Japan rewards leaders who can operate as bridges. At Starbucks, he bridged global brand ambition and Japanese retail realities. At Honey Baked Ham, he bridged an unfamiliar American food concept and Japanese legitimacy signals. At Nespresso, he bridged global process discipline and local team development. At Haribo, he bridges headquarters, distributor partners, retailers, and the Japanese market. The best leaders in Japan do not abandon ambition. They adapt how ambition is communicated and implemented. They listen longer, give more positive feedback, use smaller meetings, manage their frustration, explain the why, and build consensus before demanding action.

Leading digital bank Monzo has officially launched in Ireland, marking day one of a new way of banking for Irish customers. The launch follows a 100,000 user waitlist and five consecutive weeks as the most downloaded Finance App in Ireland, signalling huge demand for a new way of banking in the Irish market. This marks a major milestone in Monzo's European expansion. Being the first digital bank to secure a full banking licence from the Central Bank of Ireland four months ago, all Monzo accounts are protected up to €100,000 under the Deposit Guarantee Scheme. Michael Carney, EU CEO at Monzo said: "Ireland deserves a better way of banking, and it's clear customers are ready for it. The response to our waitlist shows just how strong that demand is. As our first market in Europe, we're excited to bring a bank that people genuinely love to Ireland, delivering the experience we've built serving millions. Our mission is to make money work for everyone and we're bringing that to Ireland today with free everyday banking and a simpler, smarter way for people and businesses to manage their finances". The cost and complexity of everyday banking With 38% of Irish customers ranking free accounts as one of the most important features they want from their banks, Monzo will offer free personal and business banking for everyone. Monzo also aims to eliminate the financial burden for SME owners too, who currently pay an average of €365 a year in bank fees or charges. Monzo research found that only 19% of Irish customers say they have a high level of trust in Irish banks, and just 25% would recommend their bank to friends or family. Monzo aims to bridge this 'trust gap' in the market with no hidden fees, industry-first fraud features and clear, transparent banking. While it takes time to earn trust, Monzo is customer obsessed and co-creates tools and features by listening to pain points Irish customers experience, finding innovative ways to solve them. Just one example is Monzo's industry-first 'Call Status' feature that lets customers know if they're really speaking to Monzo on the phone. While only 13% of customers say their bank always explains products clearly, 42% feel they need a "translator" to understand banking terms, products and communications. Monzo is here to change that. With no confusing terms and conditions, no jargon and 24/7 customer support, Monzo's mission is to make money work for everyone – no translator required. Saving remains a challenge Research shows that saving continues to be a challenge across the country, with 34% of those who save earning no interest at all. Nationally, Irish households are sitting on approximately €172 billion in bank deposits, earning little or nothing. Monzo customers can access a free instant access savings account, which allows them to start saving from as little as €1 while earning a competitive 1.6% variable interest rate – nearly twelve times the average Irish rate on overnight deposits. The future of Irish banking The Irish market is only moving one way, and that's digital. Bringing a new era of banking, Monzo is solving pain points and listening to what customers want. With 83% saying they want to track everything from spending to saving all in one place, Monzo's single app can do just that. Allowing customers to manage spending, organise their money and view balances in one place. Elaine Deehan, Country Manager for Ireland at Monzo said: "Our research is clear, Irish customers want free everyday banking, money that works harder for them, a partner they can trust, and a bank that speaks their language. Monzo combines the best of banking and technology with industry-first features now available to Irish customers. We're here to truly listen to our community and build the future of banking together". Irish customers can now apply for an account by downloading the Monzo app. See more stories here. More about Irish Tech News Irish Tech News are Ireland's No. 1 Online Tech Publication and o...

Suzana Curic, Country Manager de AWS (Amazon Web Services) y Begoña Villacís, Directora Ejecutiva de SPAINDC (Asociación Española de Data Centers), comentan la inversión de la compañía en España hasta los 33.700 millones de euros para expandir sus centros de datos y convertir a España en el corazón digital de Europa. “La inversión viene motivada para dar respuesta a los clientes”, Suzana Curic. Además de esta multimillonaria inversión, desde la compañía confirman que van a haber instalaciones, como una fábrica de servidores, tanto de embalaje, de pruebas, de fabricación y de reciclaje. ¿Cuál será el impacto de todo esto en el empleo? “30.000 empleos de trabajo apoyarán todo esto durante los próximos diez años”, confirma la Country Manager de Amazon Web Services. “Esto es una historia de éxito”, afirma Begoña Villacís. Sobre todo, destaca la importancia que ha tenido esto para la Comunidad de Aragón, ya que como destaca, en Silicon Valley ya se habla de la Comunidad. Para ella, una de las claves de que la empresa haya mirado a la región, es lo bien que está trabajando la Administración de Jorge Azcón. Sobre la forma en la que ha aterrizado la compañía en nuestro país, Directora Ejecutiva de la Asociación Española de Data Centers señala que “han aterrizado de una manera perfecta”. Otra de las razones por las que Begoña Villacís nos cuenta que es una magnífica noticia es por el aporte que hace a la industria española. “España es un país que lleva décadas desindustrializado”, confiesa la invitada. También apunta que “la pandemia nos puso frente al espejo” y que “somos un país que está desnudo en la industria”. Para ella todo esto no es coincidencia, ya que una compañía de la talla de Amazon haga todo esto, con esta inversión, significa que la administración aragonesa ha hecho un muy buen trabajo.
