At the MIT CDOIQ Program we have made it our purpose to advance the knowledge and accelerate the adoption of the role of Chief Data Officer (CDO) in all industries and geographical countries. We host the International Chief Data Officer and Information Quality Symposium (CDOIQ), which is one of the key events for sharing and exchanging of cutting edge ideas, content and discussions. As Data is a critical aspect of every organization, the symposium is focusing on the management and leadership of this critical element for the 21st century that will benefit every organization.
