Alongside this, the diversity of technical knowledge he has acquired from over twelve years in the tech industry across the UK and South Africa will be key in providing insightful technical value to customers.
In just a few months at ANS, Kyle has already made his mark by heading up the development of tech talent within the company. He has also broken down barriers between solution areas within the business to allow ANS to deliver more complex, multi-technology offerings, which will ultimately help customers unlock innovative AI solutions. Kyle’s commitment to shaping the digital landscape will be vital as he leads ANS in making world-class cloud and digital services accessible to all.
