Future of Digital Disruption

Register for this exclusive, invitation-only event to learn from top academics, gain insights from fellow business leaders and discuss what how digital disruption will shape the future of your industry.




ABOUT


Future of Digital Disruption


The Future of Digital Disruption is a collaboration between Teradata and Oxford University's Saïd Business School as part of The Future of Marketing Initiative. It will explore research from top academics, deliver insights from global business leaders and provide an opportunity to discuss how digital disruption will shape the future of industry.


Future of Marketing Initiative


No single organisation can take on the new challenges of the digital transformation of marketing on its own. And no business school should conduct research and teach current and future leaders without true industry collaboration and partnership. As such, Professor Stephen and Oxford Saïd have launched the Oxford Future of Marketing Initiative.

This is a unique approach in which we will forge strong, mutually-beneficial ties between Oxford Saïd and marketing and technology industry leaders. Together, we will discuss, debate, and address the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for marketing in our increasingly digitised, socially interactive, and technologically complex world.

The aim of the Oxford Future of Marketing Initiative is simple: to build a world-class community of like-minded academics and practitioners with a deep interest in issues that lie at the bleeding-edge of marketing. We will bring together high-level industry partners representing major brands, agencies, and technology companies – the key players who are shaping (and being shaped by) the future of marketing.



2018 Event


Last years event, The Future of Marketing, was held at Worcester College, Oxford. The second event of it’s kind, the event provided exceptional presentations from a range of both academic and industry leaders. Catch up on some of last year's Key Takeways.
