Business leaders must embrace a mindset and business culture of “optionality,” which empowers employees to excel in both in-person and remote activities, whether they are heads down or up, says Andres Angelani, who leads Cognizant’s Softvision software engineering practice.

Global IT consulting firm Cognizant has acquired the digital engineering arm of Hunter Technical Resources. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

It’s time for streaming services providers to use the lessons learned from 2020 to redefine the direct-to-consumer experience, says Tiran Dagan, Cognizant’s Chief Digital Officer for the Communications and Media practice.
