Listen On

Welcome to today’s episode of the CanadianSME Small Business Podcast, hosted by Maheen Bari. Technology should make business simpler, not force businesses to adapt around it. Today, we explore how leaders can balance innovation, cybersecurity, AI, and compliance while keeping technology aligned with real business needs.

Joining us are Ted de Vos, Founder and President, and David Klauser, Senior Vice President of Sales & Marketing at SIMNET Inc. With decades of combined technology leadership, they share practical insights on digital sovereignty, infrastructure modernization, cybersecurity, and building resilient technology foundations.

Key Highlights:

1. Business First Technology: Why technology should be shaped around business objectives rather than the other way around.
2. AI With Accountability: Balancing innovation with cybersecurity, governance, and compliance.
3. Digital Sovereignty: Why data location and infrastructure control matter for Canadian businesses.
