executive Summary

In last year’s survey, Harvey Nash and KPMG reported how CIOs were holding a steady line in the face of global uncertainty, cutting costs and refining business processes. Whilst much of this geopolitical instability remains, this year’s report shows how CIOs are benefiting from bigger budgets and headcount growth.
