FOREWORD
W elcome to the March edition of Business Chief Europe .
For our cover feature this month we hear from one of the largest brands in the world : The Coca-Cola Company . We speak with Damiano Marabelli , Central and Eastern Europe Business Unit CIO , as he explains the role that IT plays in a ‘ Total Beverage ’ transformation . “ We do not solve technology problems ; we use technology to solve business challenges ,” he explains . It ’ s a sentiment felt strongly across many industries , and one that lies at the heart of our publication this month .
Elsewhere in the issue , we also speak with Klaus Lohnert , Program Director SAP Cloud for Utilities , Stefan Engelhardt , Global VP Go-to-Market Strategy , Industry Business Unit Utilities , and Mateu Munar , Senior Director , Industry Business Unit Utilities , who detail SAP ’ s cloud capabilities . Lohnert summarises :
“ What ’ s happening at the moment is a tremendous infrastructure program , going from a centralised to a decentralised system .”
Wendy Rowe , Director of Product , Vision and Strategy for Cloud Strategy Operations at Wolters Kluwer Tax and Accounting , provides her insight into the tastes and behaviors of Generation Z . We also rank the top football franchises in Europe and take a closer look at the capital of Europe , Brussels .
