• From the governance call:
  • Marketing discussion; need to get idea of what CNTT messaging needs to be to business decision makers who are ultimately deciding on adoption.
    • e.g. Starts with Technical arm, moves way up to VP
    • VP typically will sponsor business case
    • VP typically will want to want to know benefits, set of data point to say why beneficial to company
    • ...typically will also go to Financial approval arm of company
    • Marketing would like to interview business leads to get a sense of what they are thinking.
