Event Description

Join CDO's from all across USA!

Virtually unheard of 3-4 years ago, CDOs are now appearing in lots of organisations. Their roles often involve:

Creating your Data Roadmap to factor in aspects such as Architecture, Governance, Privacy, Security, GDPR
Using Data to in areas such as Marketing, Products, Monetization and Customer Service to improve performance
Making use to the tech available to benefit the business such as AI, ML, Cloud, Blockchain and Digital Transformation
Helping you develop your CDO Strategy to help prove value, secure investments, encourage new and existing talent and create an agile approach to work

Taken together, you can see the structure of the CDO role is likely to be a shared service, supporting many stakeholders across a range of departments and/or business divisions. The best CDOs will be those who can guide data strategy by drawing on solid business knowledge, “good enough” technical skills, and most importantly, collaborative, consensus-building and facilitator skills.

The new CDO Event brings together leaders from across the public, large enterprises & mid-market sectors. The CDO event will provide you with a strategic and practical toolkit to help drive transformation including:

A full day of leading CDO’s discussing the latest industry trends
Workshops, panel discussions & Round table sessions led by visionaries within technology
First-hand case studies on the challenges facing the data world
Fantastic networking opportunities with peers throughout the day

Words from our attendees

I thought the quality and mix of contributions and the engagement from the audience was excellent.

It felt more like an interactive team exercise in some respects, than a sit back and listen conference, and for me was more enjoyable and genuinely helpful for that. Similar folks, passionate about their brands and their work, but with different best practice to share – very collaborative, which I personally like.

So all good and thanks for the chance to take part. It’s always a drain on time, which none of us have, but it was worth it.

This was our first experience with Global Business Events and first impressions are important. I was impressed by the level of seniority at the event. The venue worked well, the size of the event was good for networking and the 1−2−1 business
meetings were strong. Well done and I look forward to the next event’.

"Another concise, factual and easy to follow course. Presentation was very good.” - Margaret Wearing (ATT)
Having been a salesperson for over 20 years I have been to many networking events over the years and I have to say, this has got to be one of the best! It was well managed from the outset but the calibre of attendees was far superior and the timings of all meetings were kept. I would definitely recommend this event to anyone who is serious about networking and lead generation. Looking forward to the next one!
