Meeting with Dr. McGroddy

ITU’s foresight panel is visiting Copenhagen tomorrow. The role of the foresight panel is to advise the ITU board on research. It consists of five people, all of whom have extensive experience with research and research management in world-class research environments. The panel is meeting once a year in Copenhagen.
One of the five people on the foresight panel is Dr. James C. McGroddy. McGroddy headed IBM’s Research Division from 1989 through 1995 and this year he has expressed interest in enterprise architecture and IT-governance. Therefore, the head of the DUIT department at ITU, Peter Carstensen has asked Professor Søren Lauesen and me to spend some time with Dr. McGroddy tomorrow. It is a great privilege for me and feedback from our meeting will be published shortly – after my wedding this weekend
