GREENWICH, Conn., Oct. 12, 2011 — CEOs will meet to discuss the impact on their businesses of emerging technologies, including mobility, social media and cloud computing. Hosted by Chief Executive magazine Oct. 18-19 at the Stanford Graduate School of Business Knight Management Center, the conference will focus on practical solutions and best practices.
"CEOs need to be leading during this period of rapid change," says conference co-chairman Wayne Cooper. "Top leaders at low- and high-tech companies alike need to rethink how they design, build, sell, deliver and service their products."
Leaders who will discuss how they are exploiting current technologies and preparing for the future include:
- eBay CEO John Donahoe
- Kaiser Permanente CEO George Halvorson
- Pandora CEO Joe Kennedy
- San Francisco Giants President Larry Baer
- Baja Fresh CEO David Kim
- and others
CEOtech: The CEO's Role in Harnessing Emerging Technologies will be held October 18-19 at the Stanford Graduate School of Business Knight Management Center. Full details are available at http://www.ChiefExecutive.net/CEOtech.
Attending CEOs will also get an exclusive tour of Google's famed campus, the Googleplex, test drive one of the world's premiere sports cars, and enjoy a wine tasting with the CEO of a top-rated Napa Valley vineyard.
"Emerging mobile, social media and cloud computing developments are uprooting many business models and functions," says Cooper. "CEOtech provides the opportunity for CEOs to discuss key issues in an intimate setting, away from the hype."
