With technology foundation solidified, Johnson & Johnson's attention turns to what's next

Editor's note: This is the second of two parts about Johnson & Johnson's technology operations. You can find the first part about early cloud adoption and the role of the CIO here. In technology, there is a delicate balance of when to adopt cutting-edge offerings and when to lay in wait, cautiously optimistic about capabilities but hesitant to waste resources. Chief information officers are key in the enterprise to understanding where technology fits, advising where to trial emerging technologies. Successful CIOs balance modernizing the technology core with working on moonshots to drive future business.
