CRS Technology Consultants

John Joyce started his first technology company while a student at the University of Florida. He later merged that company with Cape Coral-based CRS Technology Consultants and now oversees the technical side of operations, including project management, hardware and software systems, cybersecurity initiatives, computer networks, server management and more. However, while his business may be technology-based, Joyce said he never forgets the human element.

“I’ve learned the importance of staying in touch with the ‘human factor’ of business. Technology especially is so driven by performance, numbers and staying forward-looking that it’s all too easy to forget that there are real people on the other end of the gadgets,” he says. “At the end of the day, if what we’re doing and creating isn’t in the service of those people, then we’re missing the point of what makes it so magical in the first place.”

Joyce supports Community Cooperative, Valerie’s House, De LaSalle Academy and the IT Disaster Resource Center. In addition, he is a member of the Board of Directors for United Way of Lee, Hendry and Glades Counties, while also supporting numerous charitable causes.
