SPEAKER DETAILS:

Sree Sreenivasan is the Cheif Digital Officer for the City of New York, where he works to promote access to City government through technology and support of the city's tech ecosystem.

Prior to his work at City Hall, Sreenivasan served for three years as the first Chief Digital Officer at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, where he led a 70-person team to increase the museum’s digital presence. In October 2015, he was appointed by Mayor de Blasio to the Commission on Public Information and Communication (COPIC), where he worked to increase access to, and education about, City information online.

Before his work at the Met, he spent 20 years as a member of faculty of the Columbia Journalism School and a year as Columbia University's first Chief Digital Officer. For four years, he taught an entrepreneurship class with Ken Lerer, co-founder and chairman of the Huffington Post and now head of Lerer Ventures. He has also taught media marketing classes at Columbia Business School. Because of his interest in startups, he has served as a mentor and adviser to dozens of new ventures, including many by his former students. At the same time, he teaches about intrapreneurship - how to foster innovation and create change within big organizations.

Prior to the Met, Sree was a founding member and contributing editor at neighborhood news site DNAinfo, and throughout his career, he has written for various publications, including the New York Times, and was a popular technology reporter on WABC-TV, WNBC-TV and WCBS-TV.

What’s what?

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 13

Mobile, Mobile, Mobile

Day 1 is about the word on every marketer’s mouth: Mobile. Why does it matter? And how do we get it right? Attend small group workshops about the future of mobile ads, mobile app development and trends in cross-screen targeting. Learn about the rapid rise of mobile browsing (and what that means to us) in our interactive globe installation. And hear from Kayla Witz, Founder of Mobili-T Media, about how to get caught up, and then get ahead.

THURSDAY, APRIL 14

Data Driven Marketing

We’re capturing more data than ever before. And we’re doing it more precisely. But we’re still not using data to its full potential. Used well, numbers can teach us about each other, inspire our creativity and help us take risks and innovate in our work. One highlight of the day: Peer Exchange sessions, where you can learn about the interesting ways people are using data in the industry. And don’t miss John Taff's impressive presentation about a rare skill: data design.

FRIDAY, APRIL 15
