Vivian Schiller: Head of News and Journalism at Twitter
Vivian Schiller, former Chief Digital Officer for NBC News, and Twitter’s new Head of News and Journalism Partnerships, opened the inaugural Chief Digital Officer Summit with a fireside chat with Riley McDonough, former SVP & GM of Consumer Publishing at Thomson Reuters.
Ms. Schiller will leave NBC and join Twitter in January. According to the New York Times, “at Twitter, she will oversee partnerships with news organizations like NBC, NPR and The New York Times; she worked for all three organizations earlier in her career.”
Twitter’s IPO, on Thursday November 7, was widely considered to be one of the most anticipated technology company IPOs since Google and Facebook.

The CDO Summit is the “must-attend” digital event of the year. The 2013 and 2014 CDO Summits received stellar endorsements from dozens of speakers and attendees alike:
“Sometimes a conference comes along that hits the trifecta – hot topic, high-caliber attendees, and stellar location. The first Chief Digital Officer Summit reached that mark with ease, and I look forward to attending the next one.”
“The Chief Digital Officer Summit was outstanding. Why? Candid panels with top players in the digital community. Splendid break-time conversations. And, savvy facilitation, Mathison Style.”
“David, here’s a handy C^3 test for conference value: Did I learn at least three new perspectives? Check. Did I meet at least three interesting people? Check. Did I take back at least three relevant pieces of news I can use? Check. Flying colors for the Chief Digital Officer Summit 2013! Thank you so much, and yes, I’d be very pleased to participate next year!”
“Congratulations on an exceptional first CDO Summit. I truly enjoyed all the panel discussions as well as the intimate environment where I was able to meet such amazing people. The conversations were very enlightening and touched on all the challenges my team and I face on a technology, content, and culture front. I look forward to participating next year.”
