What do you imagine when you hear the words “digital disruptor?”

Is it a San Francisco-based startup coming into an established market and bankrupting 50-year old legacy organisations through revolutionary digital innovation?

Such a characterization isn’t completely inaccurate, as since 2000, 52% of F500 companies have gone bankrupt, been acquired, or ceased to exist.

Yet while there’s no doubt that digital disruptors have forced every industry and sector to change how they do business, in some cases, the tide is quickly turning back in favor of BIG organizations.

What do you think?

Is the increasing ability of big organisations to test and challenge the disruptors using their very size and market share beginning to shift the balance of power back, in favor of the incumbents?

To explore this topic, we’ve assembled a panel of digital experts to debate the growing advantages of scale and resources in an environment where disruptors have recently dominated:

“Big is the Next Big Thing” will take place at the upcoming 2nd annual U.K. CDO Summit on 7 October 2015 at 30 Euston Square.

With the date of the event quickly approaching, be sure to reserve your seat now before they’re all filled. If you’re interested in giving your BIG organization an edge over the disruptive startups of the world, you will not want to miss this panel.
