James McClelland, SAP: “Progress is impossible without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything.” (George Bernard Shaw)
Garrett Grooms, Metropolitan Utilities District: “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different result.” (Albert Einstein)
Nicholas Mauldin, OpenText: “As the Internet of things advances, the very notion of a clear dividing line between reality and virtual reality becomes blurred, sometimes in creative ways.” (Geoff Mulgan)
