Roundtable Captains

Roundtable Captains at the Conference include:

The European CDAO WhatsApp Group

A core component of this conference is the launch of our exclusive WhatsApp Group for 500 Chief Data & Analytics Officers. We recognise that the greatest value for leaders is the ability to connect with peers facing identical challenges. This initiative follows the massive success of our recent European Chief Product Officer Conference, where we built a community of 500 members that remains highly active today.

By joining this group, attendees see that this is not merely a one-day event, but the entry point into a long-term professional ecosystem. Our experience shows that this community-first approach significantly increases event attendance and engagement, as participants can begin networking before the event starts and continue the dialogue long after it ends.
