Technology Strategy

Picture
The Technology Strategy of a company is part of its overall Business Strategy. The primary purpose of a Technology Strategy is to make sure that the Business Strategy can be realized through technology, and  investments in technology are aligned to the company's business goals. Most often, due to the fast-evolving nature of technology, Technology Strategy covers developments no more than 2-5 years into the future.

​Traditionally, a company's Technology Strategy has been expressed in a document, explaining how technology should be exploited as part of a company's overall corporate strategy and business strategy.
The company's CTO (Chief Technology Officer) is the person responsible for executing the company's Technology Strategy. 

NyTech Inc has a great deal of experience in helping formulate Technology Strategies for companies. Please give us a call at 732-317-8992 if you have any questions about crafting your organizations' Technology Strategy.
