The CDO Club (founded in 2011) and CDO Summit (2013) can help you connect with the increasingly influential C-level decision-makers in digital, data, strategy, and innovation:

  • The CDO Club is the world’s first and largest C-suite community of Chief Digital, Chief Data, CISOs, and Chief Analytics Officers.
  • The CDO Summit has a 7-year history of convening bespoke events, in intimate settings designed for networking.
  • Our social profiles include 45,000+ Twitter followers @BeTheMedia & @CDOSummit, 30,000 LinkedIn connections, and 1 million+ cumulative views on YouTube.

Taken together, our platform can help you reach this coveted, C-level demographic both online and off, from targeted campaigns to our CDO Club members via our website, blog posts, social media, and email list; to intimate roundtables, meals, and CDO Summits, where you can meet these executives face-to-face.

CDO Club: Hall of Fame

The CDO Club is the only organization tracking the ‘CDO to CEO career path’ – aka, the Hall of Fame – those CDOs who have become CEO/President or Board Director/Non Executive Director (NED).

Since 2011, more than 100 CDOs have become CEO, a startling statistic considering there are only a few thousand executives who hold that exact title.

See our Hall of Fame page for all those who made this career move, and for more information.

Sponsor Impact Report

We provide our partners with targeted reach, impact, and engagement – before, during, and after the Summit itself.

Our Sponsor Impact Reports summarize a campaign’s effectiveness across all media – traditional, mobile, and social. We put the metrics into one report to make it easier to calculate an ROI on your sponsorship. 

The report measures reach from the combined effect of our emailers, blog posts, media coverage, press releases, social media, and Twitter and Google ad campaigns.

For example, see our Sponsor Impact Report for the six months surrounding the NYC CDO Summit on April 29, 2015.


Our Sponsors

We started the CDO Summit in 2013, and in just four short years, we have attracted some of the world’s most prestigious organizations as sponsors, including Accenture Digital, Accenture Strategy, Adobe, BBC, Bloomberg, EY, Harvey Nash, IBM, McKinsey & Company, and Microsoft, among many others.

What Are Your Options?

We have a wide variety of current options, or we can craft a unique proposal to meet your specific needs.

Sponsorship packages are available for the CDO Club, the CDO Summits, or both. 

The most effective strategy combines both options into a strategic, prolonged, multi-channel marketing campaign. The CDO Summits provide intimate, face-to-face connections, while the CDO Club sponsorship gets you beyond the four walls of the event to our thousands of registered CDO Club members, tens of thousands of email subscribers, and our extensive social media platforms.

For maximum global or domestic exposure, we also offer multi-year and multi-city discounts.

Endorsements

Sponsoring the CDO Summit / CDO Club will help you build relationships, reach your target audience, and grow your business. 

But don’t take our word for it, see what past speakers, attendees, and sponsors had to say about us.

Check out our Endorsements here. 

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 HellwegManaging Director, Digital Strategy/Editorial Director at Harvard Business Review

 

 

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: Former Chief Digital Officer at Harvard University
