Martin Banks

Associate Analyst - Datacentre & Mainframe
Bloor Research

Martin Banks has been an observer and commentator on the technologies and businesses of the electronics and IT industries since 1968. As one of the UK’s leading specialist journalists he has observed the development of IT systems, and their impact on both individuals and business since the emergence of the first semiconductor memory chips and, subsequently, the first microprocessors.

In that time he has either worked on or written for all the leading publications covering the industry, from trade papers such as Electronics Weekly and Computer Weekly, through to national press such as The Times and Financial Times.

He was the first winner of the Times/ Hewlett-Packard Technology Columnist of the Year Award, an award he won twice.

He now runs his own specialist analysis and writing business and is still a regular contributor to a number of publications, including Register Developer and IT Week, specialising in coverage of the related topics of SOA, SaaS and enterprise infrastructure management and implementation. In particular, his focus is the business impact of such technologies.
