Robert Garratt, Partner - IBM Consulting

At IBM we are passionate about our relationship with Warwick’s Department of Computer science, and with the University of Warwick more broadly. Warwick produces highly capable graduates, some of whom go on to become our colleagues, clients of our consulting services or customers of our technology products. When I’ve had the opportunity to hear students present their project work, I am always impressed by their combination of technical capability, business acumen and communication skills.
