Daniel Newman

Principal Analyst and Founding Partner at Futurum Research

Chicago, United States

I love technology, but I am also extremely passionate about digital transformation and strategy because I believe technology can only reach its potential when it is intertwined with humanity. When people and technology work together to meet their potential, the business results will follow. This is where I come in.

I am an entrepreneur focused in the Technology and Digital Space. Founder, partner and operator of 4 companies ranging from my role as Principal Analyst at Futurum Research, a Technology and Analysis firm to the CEO of Broadsuite Media Group and President of Digital Agency V3B.

Prior to my days as an entrepreneur, I served as the CEO of EC3, a hosted IT and Communication services provider. Prior to that at the spry age of 28, I was the CEO of United Visual, parent company to United Visual Systems, United Visual Productions, and United GlobalComm; a family of companies focused on Unified Communications and Audio Visual Technologies.

I am also an author and contributor to some of the worlds largest media outlets. A regular on Forbes, Entrepreneur and The Huffington Post, as well as the author of 5 Amazon Best Selling Books:

• Building Dragons: Digital Transformation in the Experience Economy
• The Ultimate Field Guide to Digital Program Management
• Evolve: Marketing as we know it is Doomed
• The Millennial CEO
• The New Rules of Customer Engagement.

I am also an Adjunct Professor of Management at North Central College. I attained my undergraduate degree in Marketing at Northern Illinois University and an Executive MBA from North Central College in Naperville, Ill. I currently reside in Naperville Il with my wife (Lisa) and my three children Hailey, Avery and Matthew.

Personalize Or Perish: State Of Personalization Report For 2021
Futurum Research
July 01, 2021
It’s no secret that personalization has become a key indicator of brand success. Even before the pandemic, we knew data and personalized marketing would be essential for brands looking to build solid, long-term relationships with their customers. Still, when the pandemic forced brands to ditch nearly everything for digital platforms, personalization became an even more dominant force. In fact, a new report from Twilio Segment, one of the major players on the customer data platform front, shows personalization has never been more necessary for brands looking to last the year, let alone the next decade. Is your company prepared to meet growing consumer demands for more personalized content and shopping experiences?

IBM Returns to Revenue Growth During its Fiscal Q1
Futurum Research
April 19, 2021
Analyst Take: The second wave of tech earnings for 2021 is starting to hit, and IBM was first on deck, sharing its results for the first quarter of their 2021 fiscal. IBM saw its share price jump in the wake of its announcement as the street was encouraged by its reversal of a four consecutive quarter slide of declining revenues. The company had some strong performances that could definitely be noted in yielding this result with its cloud business and Red Hat acting as a couple of bright spots, while strengthening profit margins were also a factor in leading the company to a better than expected bottom-line result, beating estimates by $.14 per share.

Futureproof: 7 key pillars for digital transformation success
Broadsuite Inc.
September 02, 2017
Learn the digital transformation secrets of the world's most enduring companies: Find out what they do to build stability in times of constant change, and most importantly, how they make their business "Futureproof." More than ever before, well-established companies are succumbing to wave after wave of disruption from new entrants, new technologies, and new customer expectations. Companies like Kodak, Blockbuster Video and Xerox weren't able to cope with the pace and scope of disruption, and now they're all but gone. No business leader wants to be next. The pressure is on to adapt. As organizations begin to cope with the realization that digital transformation is the key to their survival in the age of technology-driven business, it is easy to fall into the trap of thinking that digital transformation is merely a technology investment play. It isn't. There is a larger operational vision at play here, and the world's most adaptable companies have already figured out what it is. Broken down into its core components, it consists of 7 operational pillars that help organizations accelerate digital transformation, manage change, and turn disruption into a tireless engine of opportunity.

Building Dragons: Digital Transformation in the Experience Economy
Broadsuite, Inc.
April 22, 2016
Learn to transform your business into a dragon: an agile company fit to adapt, innovate and thrive even in disruptive times. Unlike unicorns, which, for all their popularity, tend to rely on risky and experimental business models, dragons are established companies that continue to leverage their original startup mentality to systematically innovate their way to profitability. What makes dragons so much more interesting to executives than unicorns is that they are not built merely on potential and popularity, but on purposeful reinvention, scalable market dominance, and a commitment to long term success. Maybe the best part about the dragon model is that, equipped with the right roadmap and the right set of tools, any business can learn to become more agile and transform itself into a dragon.
