Welcome to PCR’s first issue of 2024
s you might expect, we’ve had a look a what the industry is saying about this next year to come. Whether it’s hardware, software, cloud, edge or any other area of tech, artificial intelligence seems to be the
name of the game. Take a look at our overview of opinion in the 2024 predictions. Sustainability is our other area of focus in this issue and Amber Hovious of
Teamwork Commerce discusses how to balance online and brick-and-mortar retail, with sustainability playing a surprisingly important role. With a view
towards a company’s responsibility to sustainability, Richard Slade of Utelize Mobile talks about the multi-faceted approach the company has towards the environment. Meanwhile, Kevin Wragg of TD Synnex talks about how sustainability is growing in importance.
In our big interview, Yana Kuzmanova talks to us about why Logitech has recently overhauled
its partner programme and what it means for partners, while in our Life in the Channel interview, Rob Young, of Infinity Group reveals the company’s journey from its founding to its current growth and expansion plans.

of Agilitas looks at four key disciplines that can help align customer and employee channels, while Daniel Todaro of the Gekko Group looks at where brands should be focusing their attention if they wish to grow their e-commerce performance in 2024. Retail Express’ Ed Betts explores the ways digital transformation can lead retailers to new horizons and help them get the edge in a crowded, competitive market.
When it comes to choosing between on-premises and cloud-based document management
solutions, the decision can be challenging. David Malan of DocuWare delves into the key considerations. AI and security is a rapidly evolving issue, so Clyde Williamson and Nathan Vega of Protegrity explore what often seems to be a complex relationship between the two.
Finally, James Barrett of Michael Page Technology talks to PCR about the current trends
within tech recruitment. I hope you find this issue informative and interesting.
