The Changing Role of the Utility CIO

Think Tank - 3:50 pm - 4:15 pm

The role of the Utility CIO is changing dramatically as new business models and business processes threaten a century-old institution. Innovative companies like Apple, Tesla and Google are now launching major initiatives, which will reduce electricity sold by utilities, change the customer engagement model and shift the consumers behavior.

In order to adapt to this challenge, the CIO must enable a real-time, complete view of company situations and key figures across departments. This real-time view is now critical for transitioning to a digital business landscape to improve productivity and decision making by accessing accurate information, analyzing alternatives and implications in real-time.
