Bain & Company announces senior leadership appointments in its Enterprise Technology practice
With the rapidly evolving role of AI and fundamental technology innovations fueling tech-driven change across industries, Bain is continuing to see strong growth in client demand for its deep technology expertise. Tech- and AI-enabled revenue already accounts for more than 30% of the firm's business and is expected to reach half of revenues in coming years. The firm's new Enterprise Technology practice leadership team will play a pivotal role in the continuing development of its ET capabilities and its broader tech-related support for clients.
Bain announced today that Pascal Gautheron will take over as the global leader of its Enterprise Technology practice, succeeding Stephen Phillips, who has headed the firm's global ET team for the past seven years. Phillips becomes chairman of the ET practice, working directly with Bain's clients and market-facing forums to raise awareness of enterprise technology's full potential.
Gautheron takes over the global leadership position having previously served as head of the ET practice in Asia-Pacific (APAC). He brings to his new role more than 27 years of experience in shaping some of the region's largest technology-enabled business transformations, particularly in the banking and financial services sector. Since joining Bain in 2017, Gautheron has supported multiple clients in developing and implementing successful digital and core systems transformations, next-generation technology architectures, agile at scale, and leading-edge AI deployments.
Having previously been based in Sydney, Australia, and having begun his career as an engineer in Stuttgart and Paris, and with an MBA from the HEC Paris Business School, Gautheron will return to those roots to lead Bain's ET practice from the firm's Paris office.
In further key changes in Bain's regional ET leadership, the firm also announced today that Damian Stephenson replaces Gautheron as regional leader of the ET practice in APAC. Based in Sydney, Stephenson has spent nearly 20 years at Bain (both in APAC and North America). He specializes in supporting clients in all industries to pursue technology modernization and technology-led strategy and transformation. Stephenson is also a leader in the firm's Financial Services and M&A practices.
Laurent Hermoye becomes regional leader for ET in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), succeeding Marc van der Vleugel. Brussels-based Hermoye brings two decades' experience in shaping and delivering large-scale digital transformations, particularly in the consumer brands sector. Major business transformations he has led have involved large-scale initiatives enabled by enterprise resource planning (ERP), digital marketing, commerce, and operations enhancements, as well as post-merger integrations and separations. He has also led multiple technology and AI strategies, operating model redesign programs, and cost transformations. Hermoye also serves as chairman of Enterprise Blueprints, a Bain company providing enterprise and solution architecture services.
Denver-based partner Will Poindexter continues to serve as regional leader for ET in the Americas (AMER).
Chuck Whitten, partner and global head of Bain's digital practices and capabilities, commented: 'With investment in AI and data now a paramount priority for companies across industries, the new Enterprise Technology leadership announced today will further accelerate our work to bring the power of cutting-edge technologies to help our clients solve some of the most complex business challenges. More than just identifying the best means for technology to benefit a business, today companies need to reinvent entire business models and value chains atop their tech infrastructures. Our new ET leaders will enable our clients to lead the field in grasping these critical business challenges.'
Whitten added: 'With today's transition, I want to thank Stephen Phillips and recognize the outstanding contribution to Bain that he has made over more than two decades in leadership roles in our Enterprise Technology team. Stephen has been the guiding hand in the rapid growth of the ET practice through those years, in developing the breadth and depth of its capabilities, its expertise, and its people – and in bringing the very best of Bain to deliver industry-leading results for our clients. I'm delighted that, as ET practice chairman, Stephen will be playing a continuing and central role in the world-class work our ET team are bringing to clients around the globe every day.'
Bain & Company's global Enterprise Technology practice consists of a team of more than 1,500 multidisciplinary experts including data scientists, architects, software engineers, innovators and designers. Along with nearly two-dozen focused partnerships with some of today's most renowned technology firms, Bain's ET team equip client businesses with market-leading capabilities to power growth and accelerate value creation.

UAE's Growth: Economy, Culture, Sustainability & Innovation
The United Arab Emirates: A Comprehensive Insight into Progress, Culture, and Economy Introduction to the United Arab Emirates The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a modern nation recognized globally for its remarkable advancements in technology, architecture, and economic development. Situated in the southeastern corner of the Arabian Peninsula, the UAE comprises seven emirates: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Fujairah, and Ras Al Khaimah. Since its formation in 1971, the UAE has transformed from a desert economy reliant on pearl fishing into a global hub for trade, tourism, finance, and innovation. With a strategic location connecting Asia, Europe, and Africa, the UAE serves as a focal point for international businesses and cultural diversity. The blend of traditional Arab heritage and futuristic modernization makes it one of the most intriguing destinations for tourists, investors, and expatriates. Through strategic planning and visionary leadership, the UAE has established itself as a powerhouse in the Middle East and beyond. A Thriving Economy Built on Oil, Trade, and Diversification The Role of Oil in UAE's Economic Beginnings The foundation of the UAE's economic development began with the discovery of oil in the region. Oil exports led to a rapid influx of wealth, allowing the country to invest heavily in infrastructure and public services during the 1970s and 1980s. Abu Dhabi, which holds the majority of the UAE's oil resources, became the primary financial contributor to the federation's prosperity. However, while oil revenues played a significant role in the initial phase of development, the UAE understood that reliance on a single resource posed risks to long-term stability. This insight led to a concentrated effort to shift the economy towards diversification. Today, oil contributes less than 30% of its GDP, showcasing the success of its strategic planning. Economic Diversification and Innovation To reduce dependence on oil, the UAE has invested heavily in industries such as tourism, technology, real estate, aviation, and renewable energy. Dubai, often regarded as the face of UAE's economic success, has become a global hub for trade and tourism. Attractions such as the Burj Khalifa, Palm Jumeirah, and events like the Dubai Expo highlight its ability to attract visitors and investors from all over the world. Real-world examples include Dubai International Airport, which consistently ranks among the busiest airports globally, showcasing the UAE's importance in global connectivity. Another instance of innovation is Masdar City in Abu Dhabi, an urban development focused on sustainability and renewable energy, supporting the UAE's vision for a green future. Statistical Insights into UAE's Economy According to data from the World Bank, the UAE's GDP reached approximately $421 billion in 2022, reflecting its impressive economic growth. Non-oil sectors account for over 70% of this GDP, indicating the effectiveness of its diversification policies. Additionally, international trade amounts to nearly $600 billion annually, positioning the UAE as the Middle East's trade capital. The UAE has also ranked among the top 10 countries globally for ease of doing business, with various free zones like Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA) and Dubai Airport Free Zone providing incentives for international companies. Such initiatives have driven the UAE to become a preferred destination for global investors. Culture: A Unique Blend of Tradition and Modernity The Heritage of the UAE and Preservation of Arab Identity Despite its rapid modernization, the UAE prides itself on maintaining its Arab roots and heritage. Traditional values of hospitality, family, and respect still dominate everyday life. Cultural landmarks such as the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi serve as symbols of both religious devotion and architectural genius. Festivals like Eid Al Fitr, Eid Al Adha, and National Day highlight the UAE's rich cultural traditions. These events are celebrated with grandeur and serve as moments where residents, expatriates, and tourists come together to appreciate the Emirati way of life. Integration of Global Customs and Diversity The UAE is home to over 200 nationalities, making it one of the most multicultural nations globally. The Emirati people have embraced diversity by integrating various cuisines, languages, and customs into their culture. For example, Dubai hosts the Dubai Shopping Festival, an event that attracts international participants and showcases a blend of global traditions. Cultural exchange is evident in the UAE's educational institutions as well, where schools offer curricula from countries such as the United Kingdom, United States, India, and more. Expatriates find comfort in the UAE's inclusive laws, while Emiratis retain their heritage, creating a harmonious society. Sustainable Urban Development and Architecture Modern Architectural Wonders The UAE has become synonymous with groundbreaking architectural achievements. From the tallest tower in the world, Burj Khalifa, to the artificial islands of Palm Jumeirah, the country's innovative spirit knows no bounds. The Louvre Abu Dhabi offers another example of architectural ingenuity, combining traditional Arab designs with modern aesthetics. Such projects have not only captivated the world's attention but have also driven economic growth by attracting millions of tourists annually. For example, statistics show that Dubai received nearly 16 million visitors in 2022, making it one of the most visited cities globally. Sustainable Development Projects The UAE has also taken a leadership role in promoting sustainable urban development. Masdar City serves as a shining example, with its focus on sustainability, renewable energy, and zero-carbon living. Additionally, projects like the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy aim to make renewable energy account for 75% of Dubai's power by 2050. Alongside these initiatives, the UAE has launched programs like the Green Economy Initiative and UAE Energy Strategy 2050 to reduce carbon emissions, ensuring modernity does not come at the cost of environmental degradation. Tourism: A Pillar of UAE's Diversified Economy Global Attractions and Events Tourism is one of the fastest-growing sectors in the UAE, contributing significantly to the nation's economy. Landmarks such as the Burj Al Arab, Dubai Frame, and Abu Dhabi's Emirates Palace are magnets for travelers worldwide. Events like the Dubai Expo and the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix further diversify the types of tourists visiting the country. Research conducted by Dubai Tourism reveals that the emirate aims to attract 25 million visitors by 2025. This ambitious target reflects the success of various tourism strategies, including hosting cultural festivals, music events, and exhibitions. Artificial islands and luxury resorts have also contributed to strengthening the UAE's reputation as a world-class tourist destination. The Rise of Eco-Tourism Eco-tourism is emerging as a popular trend in the UAE, thanks to initiatives such as the Al Marmoom Desert Conservation Reserve and Jubail Mangrove Park. These destinations allow visitors to connect with nature while learning about the UAE's environmental conservation efforts. Furthermore, wildlife sanctuaries like Sir Bani Yas Island offer a haven for endangered species, turning the UAE into more than just a destination for opulence—it's also a place for ecological exploration. Education and Technological Innovations Advancements in UAE's Educational Sector The UAE prioritizes education as a cornerstone for future development. State-of-the-art schools and universities, such as Zayed University and NYU Abu Dhabi, reflect the country's commitment to raising globally competitive professionals. Education reforms have introduced technology-driven curricula to ensure students are prepared for the digital age. For example, the UAE Ministry of Education's Smart Learning Program has integrated advanced technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI) into classrooms, offering new opportunities for teaching and learning. The UAE as a Regional Technology Leader The UAE has emerged as a hub for technological innovations. Startups specializing in technology reside in zones like Dubai Internet City, supported by government funding and incubator programs. The UAE is also pushing boundaries in AI through high-profile projects such as employing AI for healthcare diagnostics and smart city developments. Additionally, Emirates Mars Mission—the UAE's space exploration venture—highlights its foray into advanced sciences, making it the first Arab nation to reach Mars. Such initiatives solidify the UAE's position as a leader in modern innovation. Business Environment and Opportunities A Magnet for Global Investors The UAE provides an investor-friendly business ecosystem backed by free zones, tax exemptions, and modern infrastructure. JAFZA alone has over 8,000 companies across industries, ranging from logistics to advanced manufacturing. Moreover, UAE's robust banking system and strong rule of law make it an attractive destination for businesses seeking stability in the Middle East. Major corporations, such as Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, have established offices in the UAE, capitalizing on its strategic location and advanced digital infrastructure. Support for Startups and Entrepreneurs Initiatives like Dubai Future Accelerators and Sharjah Entrepreneurship Festival encourage global startups to operate in the UAE. Emirati youth are also displaying a growing interest in entrepreneurship, supported by programs such as Khalifa Fund for Enterprise Development, which offers grants and mentorship. Statistics show that SMEs (Small and Medium Enterprises) contribute over 53% to the UAE's GDP, emphasizing the country's commitment to fostering innovation and growth. UAE's Vision for the Future The UAE has set ambitious goals under Vision 2021 and Vision 2030 frameworks, which emphasize sustainability, innovation, and diversification. Projects like the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy align with these goals, with a focus on shifting away from fossil fuels. Additionally, the upcoming COP28 conference, to be hosted in the UAE, exemplifies the country's leadership in tackling global environmental challenges. Global Collaborations and Partnerships The UAE continues to strengthen its international relations through partnerships with major economies like the United States, China, and India. Collaborative efforts in sectors such as energy, education, and defense underscore the country's importance on the global stage. Its active participation in organizations like the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) further showcases the UAE's role in shaping the future of sustainable development worldwide.

Wrench attacks drive crypto investors to centralized custodians
Crypto custodians are reporting increased interest in their services amid the rising frequency of so-called '$5 wrench attacks' on cryptocurrency traders, investors and project leaders. In the last year, several high-profile wrench attacks — physical attempts to steal someone's crypto — have targeted prominent investors and business executives in the blockchain industry. The crypto mantra of 'not your keys, not your coins' has lost its power among some investors who fear for their personal safety. Cold wallets may offer full control over digital assets, but they also present a single point of attack. As crypto adoption grows, and wrench attacks persist with the proliferation of more high-value crypto investors, custodians are seeing a shift in preference from self-custody to institutional control. Crypto wrench attacks drive security demand Wrench attacks are nothing new. Jameson Lopp, a Bitcoin advocate and chief technology officer of Bitcoin wallet Casa, published a GitHub repository logging hundreds of such incidents since 2014 — and those were only the ones reported in the news. In the last two to three years, as crypto adoption has sped up and become more mainstream than ever, attacks have grown more public and sophisticated. In January 2025, the founder of crypto wallet Ledger and his wife, David and Amandine Balland, were kidnapped, taken to separate locations and held at ransom. Just months later, the daughter of an exchange founder barely fought off attackers who attempted to kidnap her in a van on the streets of Paris. Concern over the rise in attacks and their similar methods led French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau to meet with cryptocurrency professionals to discuss the issue. As concern over these attacks grows, crypto custodians are noticing an uptick in interest in their services. Emma Shi, over-the-counter and institutional sales director of HashKey, which offers custody and exchange services, told Cointelegraph, 'We're absolutely seeing rising retail anxiety translate into meaningful inflows. Wealthier retail investors are increasingly approaching regulated custodians after high-profile cases like the recent Manhattan kidnapping, where physical coercion was used to access private keys.' Shi said HashKey's custody business has noted increased interest in storage from 'family offices, crypto-native high-net-worth individuals and even those with nest eggs that are large enough to be vulnerable to theft.' Cold wallets have long been lauded by crypto advocates as a way to give investors full control over their assets and to keep them maximally secure offline. However, this single key also provides a 'single point of failure,' per Wade Wang, CEO of multiparty computation (MPC) crypto custody service Safeheron. Wang said that there is a 'flight to security' among crypto investors, where holders 'are actively seeking innovative solutions that eliminate that single point of failure to significantly raise the bar for attacking.' Already in 2023, a report from PricewaterhouseCoopers on the state of digital custody noted the challenge of cold wallets being prone to theft or loss. One solution posited in the report was MPC or multisignature wallet options. Can custody services stop wrench attacks? Crypto self-custody, while boasting a new technology, runs into the same problem as treasure hoarders throughout history — they were vulnerable to physical attacks and theft until they could share that risk with a stronger and securer institution like a bank. Robbing a bank is a lot harder than robbing a person. In the same fashion, crypto investors are now seeking to 'raise the cost' of the $5 wrench attack. Wang said that investors wish to 'return to the fundamental principle: making the cost for an attacker rise exponentially. For example, when it costs $3 million to steal $10 million, the incentive for attack is lost.' Third-party custody can achieve this and mitigate the problem of wrench attacks, adding time-locks and layers of approval and shifting the target from an individual to the custodian's employees. 'But it is not an optimal solution,' per Wang. Trust is still put in a single, centralized institution and, as exemplified by the recent breaches at Coinbase and Bybit, even major regulated crypto businesses are vulnerable to employee misconduct and phishing. Wang suggested that distributed custody, such as MPC, 'is a superior solution because it fundamentally solves the problem. The core principle of MPC is to use technology to decentralize the single point of control and risk […] into a 'multiparty' structure.' In such a system, control doesn't belong to any one person, and transferring funds requires complex consensus protocols from multiple parties. Decentralized solutions may better reflect the ethos of the blockchain industry, but 'we cannot neglect the benefits of centralized custodians,' Wang said. 'Reliable security measures bring better assurance of keeping clients' assets safe, a familiar way of doing things for lots of new crypto players.' Centralized or decentralized, crypto investors could still be at risk if the public image of crypto investors is that they are all walking around with cold wallets full of Bitcoin. Shi said, 'The perception of risk matters, too. Attackers often assume holders store funds themselves, so public awareness that more crypto is held in custodial solutions may deter opportunistic assaults.' Wrench attacks a 'temporary problem' solved by adoption Public perception is indeed changing. Retail investors are increasingly making crypto part of their portfolio, according to a 2024 report from Ernst & Young. New regulations in large financial markets like the EU and the US are creating the frameworks necessary for institutional investors to get involved. This regulatory shift has been good for the custody industry as well, as it 'legitimizes professional custody for everyday investors and is leading to more offerings from not only crypto-native firms but traditional banks as well,' said Shi. 'We're seeing crypto adoption accelerate in regions with regulatory clarity, which creates entirely new custody considerations for investors who previously relied solely on self-custody solutions.' Regulations also raise the stakes of wrench attacks, per Wang. Better regulatory frameworks with more jurisdictions 'proactively setting robust regulations' will 'inevitably lead to more severe law enforcement actions, which will significantly increase the cost of such attacks and fundamentally curb such behaviors.' 'We see the physical attacking as a temporary challenge,' Wang concluded. The crypto industry has evolved through many stages, but the rise of wrench attacks on prominent investors and executives shows that it has yet to reach the maturity of traditional financial markets. In the meantime, executives are not only moving their assets to centralized and decentralized custodians but also finding muscle of their own. Personal security firms have also seen an uptick in interest from crypto's elite to protect their homes and persons. Source:
