Nigel Fenwick

Vice President, Principal Analyst serving CIOs

Nigel serves CIOs and business technology leaders, focusing on the role of technology as an enabler of business outcomes. His research focuses on the intersection of technology and marketing and includes coverage of business and technology strategy, digital business, social business strategy, marketing technology, and technology trends and their impact on competitive advantage.

Previous Work Experience

Ever since becoming an executive director and CIO at Reebok UK at the age of 26, Nigel has consistently led many technology industry trends: He was the first CIO to partner with Infosys to pioneer the offshore development model; he was the first CIO to introduce a marketing role to IT; and he was an early advocate of the business relationship management role that is now so critical to many IT organizations. Nigel went on to a successful career in retail technology marketing with Radius Retail and Transatlantic Software before becoming an entrepreneur, starting up an eCommerce research publishing business and a GPS fleet management software business. He joined Forrester as the general manager of the IT Leadership Boards business in 2006, growing the business more than 300% in three years. Having spent equal time over his career in IT, marketing, and general management, Nigel now brings a unique business technology perspective to his research at Forrester.

Since becoming an analyst, Nigel's leading-edge research has focused on business at the intersection of IT and marketing. Recognized as a visionary with insight into emerging trends, Nigel has published research on social business strategy, business technology strategy, innovation, retail, and marketing. His latest research on digital business examines the role of technology in delivering outstanding customer experience.
