Technology companies are involved in thousands of acquisitions every year. Selecting the best target for an acquisition often requires reliable advice on technical issues at the executive level. The CTO is also a valuable tool in addressing the increasingly well-informed media about the products, services, and the future plans of the company. CTOs can speak as peers to other technologists and can play a role in convincing the media that the company's decisions are sound and will add value for the company's stakeholders.

The book will review all of the current events, and thought leadership to become a CTO or a CIO. This book also acts as a complete reference guide. It is important to note that the CTO and CIO terms will be used interchangeably throughout the book due to increasingly integrated focus.
