Viatel Technology Group Signals New Era with Appointment of Marty Patterson as Client CTO

Viatel Technology Group today announced the appointment of Marty Patterson to the role of Client CTO. This strategic move reinforces Viatel’s evolution into a comprehensive technology partner capable of meeting every facet of a modern enterprise’s technology requirements.

As businesses move away from fragmented procurement, Viatel has consolidated its expertise into a single, seamless solution stack. This integrated ecosystem spans three core divisions: Communication Services, Digital Services, and Cybersecurity with AI and cybersecurity at the core of the customer offering.

 

Technology as a Competitive Edge

Marty will:

  • Partner with senior customer leaders to bridge business strategy and technology execution
  • Help organisations modernise, optimise costs, improve resilience, and turn technology ambition into practical business outcomes.
  • Work closely with CIOs, CTOs, and digital and operations leaders to shape clear strategies, and roadmaps across Communications, Digital, and Cyber.
  • At its core, the role is about being a trusted advisor: cutting through complexity, focusing on what matters, and making technology work harder for the business.
