CHIEF AI OFFICER SUMMIT OPENING KEYNOTE:
The Chief AI Officer Talent Map
Learn All About This Critical New Role!

Eleven years ago on February 28, 2013 at the inaugural CDO Summit in NYC I keynoted on the world's first-ever "Chief Digital Officer Talent Map," which covered key CDO demographic data, new CDO hires, compensation, skills, career path, reporting structures, and statistics on geographic distribution, gender, education, age, and race.
Today there are thousands of executives who hold these CDO titles globally. Of course its dated now, but you can still download the original 2013 CDO Talent Map here

In September prior to the Chief AI Officer Summit in Washington DC, we'll be publishing the world's first-ever Chief AI Officer Talent Map 2024 to that same page, so stay tuned.

Every day we get the same questions from journalists, the media, hiring managers, CHROs, and fellow CAIOs/CDAOs: they want to know who these Chief AI Officers are, what organizations they work for, what they are responsible for, where they are located, their backgrounds/skills, and how to get one - or become one!

Based on over one year of research, the Chief AI Officer Talent Map 2024  will answer those questions and more. It explores the Chief AI Officer title in depth, including a look at some of the leaders who hold the title, the organizations they work for, compensation, key responsibilities, reporting structure, headcount, budget, previous work experience, and other demographic data including age, gender, region, sector, tenure, etc. 

The Chief AI Officer Talent Map 2024 is intended for C-suite and Board-level AI, digital/data/analytics executives and leaders in HR, Strategy, IT, Marketing, Sales, and Business Development, as well as executive recruiters, hiring managers, compensation directors, and industry analysts, journalists, and researchers.

The Executive Summary of the Chief AI Officer Talent Map 2024 will be available for complimentary download, the full report will cost $995.
 
BONUS: Delegates who buy BOTH DAYS at regular price will get the Chief AI Officer Talent Map 2024 at NO COST = a $995 value!
