About

Ben Kepes

Ben Kepes is an analyst, an entrepreneur, a commentator and a business adviser. His business interests  include a diverse range of industries from manufacturing to property to technology. As a technology commentator he has a broad presence both in the traditional media and extensively online. Ben covers the convergence of technology, mobile, ubiquity and agility, all enabled by the Cloud. His areas of interest extend to enterprise software, software integration, financial/accounting software, platforms and infrastructure as well as articulating technology simply for everyday users.

As organizations react to the demands for more flexible working environments, the impacts of the economic downturn and the existence of multiple form-factor devices nd ubiquitous connectivity, Cloud computing stands alone as the technology paradigm that enables the convergence of those trends – Ben’s insight into these factors has helped organizations large and small, buy-side and sell-side, to navigate a challenging path from the old paradigm to the new one.

Ben is passionate about technology as an enabler and enjoys exploring that theme in various settings.

From his LinkedIn recommendation by Chuck Dietrich, CEO of Sliderocket:

Ben is a great technology, industry and trend pundit. He excels at understanding the landscape, making sense of the complexities and boiling it all down to actionable summary and analysis.

And this from Daniel Druker, SVP from Intacct:

I think pretty highly of Ben Kepes, the principal at Diversity. He’s got great ideas and a strong perspective on all things SaaS and Cloud Computing.
