A Gathering of Europe's leading CDOs 

After a decade of shaping the data agenda in the UK, we were proud to unveil the inaugural CDO BFSI Exchange Europe in February. This European edition responded to growing demand for a dedicated platform reflecting the region’s unique regulatory, cultural, and technological data landscape.

Rooted in 10 years of peer-led insight and practical transformation, the Exchange brought together 60 elite data leaders from banking, financial services, and insurance for two days of high-impact discussions, curated networking, and actionable strategy.

As AI adoption accelerated and compliance pressures mounted, the role of the CDO was clearly shifting from building infrastructure to building influence. The Exchange was designed to support that shift - helping leaders embed governance into innovation, scale GenAI responsibly, and demonstrate the business value of data in tangible terms.

The event connected Europe’s most forward-thinking data leaders to help shape the future of financial services.
