"Despite being highly connected, society and business have never been more fragmented" says Mark Fox. "What is needed is a new type of collaborative experience - one that is rich in content, communications, and networking across the globe. Most importantly this Forum also provides a platform for CIOs to inform and influence the future development of digital transformation solutions that will better serve the needs of forward-looking businesses."
Members will be like-minded and progressive senior executives, industry peers and thought leaders which wish to share business transformation challenges, experiences and solutions. They are looking for better ways to manage and adapt to new realities in a shifting social, business, and political landscape. Members can recommend industry peers who they consider might benefit from, and contribute to, the growing community. Looking to the Forum's long-term potential, there is no membership fee for the first six months.
All members benefit from access to timely advice and insights. They can take advantage of new opportunities to interact and meet like-minded executives, analysts, technologists, business visionaries and thought leaders. The aim is to facilitate easy and productive discussion in a comfortable format - freed from the pressures of today's fragmented and noisy communication environment.
"I am delighted to be joining the Founding Board" says Dr. Ron Layton. "The Business Innovation Leaders' Forum offers a new way to communicate, in an efficient manner with industry peers. Today we are facing global challenges, and it demands a broader collaborative mindset - one even greater than the sum of its parts."
According to Ramesh Marimuthu: "We anticipate a fertile ecosystem, where members benefit from the experience, shared wisdom, and insights from this exclusive, unbiased, and independent community of Business Leaders. The Forum serves as a seedbed for innovation - to drive growth, shape industry conversation and channelize the global business narrative."
In addition to the Founding Board, leading experts - from academia, research organizations, financial services, banking and intergovernmental organizations - are being invited to be "Ambassadors" and Special Advisors to the forum leadership. Some of those already on-board include: research analysts Brad Casemore, IDC, Tam Dell'Oro, Dell'Oro Group and Erin Dunne of Vertical Systems Group, providing trending data and informed market predictions; innovation spotter/investor Hiro Rio Maeda, DNX Ventures; Nalanie Harelela Chellaram, science of the mind advisor, balancing business and life skills; plus additional experts.
