12 On The Money - Becky Suran Interviews BTM CEO Faisal Hoque

"There is no substitute for vision...definition of a ‘converged’ company is an organization that continuously innovates new business models by utilizing technology effectively, and understands changing socio-economic conditions.

The basis for moving forward is understanding we live in a globally interconnected economic, business and social environment. As we move further into the 21st century, new technologies are changing these fundamental relationships at an ever-accelerating pace. Cross-cultural boundaries are diminishing. The marketplace is growing ever more intense and demanding. Clearly, the imperative to innovate could not be greater.

These goals are not simply possible. They are inevitable. They are achievable when viewed from a fresh perspective, as an act of transformation: a proactive process for an individual or institution, regardless of purpose or mission, which begins with a passionate need to effect significant change in both the internal and external environments. We don’t make progress in this world by doing the same things we’ve always done and expecting different results. Put another way, the 20th-century economic, business, social models simply aren’t working efficiently any longer.”
