The inaugural Sydney CDO Summit will be hosted at the UTS Business School and presented by Accenture Digital on 01 March 2016
By 2019, it’s estimated that up to 40 billion devices may be connected to the internet or each other.
Welcome to the “internet of things,” or IoT.
It’s a world where a refrigerator can send you a message on your phone when your milk is about to expire, and also a coupon to buy a fresh carton at the local supermarket.
IoT presents infinite opportunities for organizations looking to harness the power of connected platforms.
That’s why we’re holding a moderated panel at the inaugural Sydney CDO Summit on March 1, 2016, hosted at the UTS Business School and presented by Accenture Digital, with an incredible array of experts who will explore the opportunities present in IoT.
We will be joined by:
George Lawson: Head of Emerging Products and Innovation in Australia and New Zealand for Visa. Lawson’s focus is on mobile and how this supports multi-channel and multi-form factor purchase experiences, and he is responsible for Visa’s proximity payments including eSE, HCE and new form factors as they emerge, person to person payments and how these come together with remote payments on the mobile.
Kate Burleigh: Managing Director for Intel Australia and New Zealand. Responsible for Intel’s overall business operations in the region, Burleigh has 20 years of consumer sales and brand building experience. Burleigh plays a key role in ensuring Intel fulfills its role as trusted advisor and enabler within the evolving technology landscape.

The CDO Summit is the “must-attend” digital event of the year. The 2013, 2014 and 2015 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.”
Eric Hellweg
Managing Director, Digital Strategy/Editorial DirectorHarvard Business Review
“Congratulations and thanks to David Mathison for spotting the need for community and collaboration in the growing Chief Digital Officer space, and for having the wherewithal, network, and organizational talent to put together such a top-notch event in its inaugural year. Next year’s summit should be even more of a must-do for anyone working digital at senior levels in all kinds of businesses.”
Teddy Goff

“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!”
Perry Hewitt
Chief Digital OfficerHarvard University
“Congratulations to David Mathison and his team on the simply amazing job they did on the inaugural Chief Digital Officer Summit. Probably the most informative, insightful, on target, entertaining, collaborative, thought provoking, and inspiring conferences I have ever attended. I learned more about my business and what I do in the past 12 hours than I have from any research white paper, articles or blogs over the past 12 months. The range of topics and speakers assembled were incredibly diverse, informative, collaborative, and most of all, inspiring. It has invigorated me to be the best possible professional CDO I can be. David Mathison’s skills as a moderator were impeccable, bringing out the best of the speakers and keeping the conversation flowing. His intimate and insightful knowledge of this space is only out-shined by his humility and graciousness. Kudos to David and his organizing team.”
