The CDO Summit Presented by GA and Oxford Saïd Business School | Online

About this event

As digital forces continue to dramatically affect the corporate landscape, the role of the Chief Digital Officer is increasingly being seen as the necessary executive to help organisations seize the opportunities of the digital age. However, there is a seemingly endless set of backgrounds, responsibilities, and trajectories for the CDOs, and little rigorous academic and practical research to understand this important role.

General Assembly has teamed up with Oxford Saïd Business School to conduct an in-depth research project on the role of the Chief Digital Officer, based on almost 50 detailed interviews with CDOs around the world across a variety of industries.

To release the report, General Assembly and Oxford Saïd Business School are hosting The CDO Summit. This intimate event will feature conversations with selected research participants, as well as a description of the surprising and not-so-surprising findings.

Speakers include:

• Tricia Blair, Chief Digital Officer, Aon
• Toby Goldblatt, SVP Digital Services, Atos
• Domitille Doat, Chief Digital Officer, Danone
• Andrew Stephen, Associate Dean of Research, Saïd Business School
• Michael Smets, Associate Professor, Saïd Business School
• Anand Chopra-McGowan, Head of EMEA, General Assembly

Attendees will include leaders from General Assembly's client and partner companies, as well as selected students from General Assembly and Oxford Saïd Business School.
