We have compiled a list of the top 21 Chief Technology Officers in the electronic trading industry, operating in North America.

The 21 CTOs were selected based on a survey distributed through our Total Trading blog with the following criteria in mind:

  • Excellence in building and maintaining technological infrastructure
  • Respected selection of technological products
  • Influence on the electronic trading industry

We want you to gain a true insight into North America’s top technology officers, so we asked all of them the same questions:

1.) What has been your biggest achievement or accomplishment as CTO?

2.) Which future technology or advancement do you see playing a large role in the electronic trading industry in the future?

3.) What is a skill, trait, or experience that you discovered early in your career, which has enabled you to be successful today?

4.) What is a fun or interesting fact that people might not know about you?
