CDO Vision London 2026 - The Future of Data & AI Unfolds | After Movie
CIO Vision London 2026 takes place on March 20, 2026 at Novotel London West in London, United Kingdom. It is a one-day, invite-only summit for Chief Data Officers and enterprise AI leaders.
About CDO Vision London
CDO Vision London brings an invite-only executive summit to London, connecting Chief Data Officers with enterprise AI and technology leaders. The format centres on practical decisions: selecting useful AI applications, preparing reliable data, establishing governance and measuring business outcomes. Rather than treating every organisation as having the same priorities, the summit creates space to compare implementation challenges and learn from peers working within different constraints.
The organisations listed for this London edition represent sectors including Public Sector, Banking & Finance, Technology, Industrials & Materials, Food & Beverage, Telecom & Media, Education & Research. These local conversations bring different operating contexts into the room: the demands of regulated services, customer-facing businesses and technology delivery are not identical, even when leaders are considering similar AI capabilities.
The agenda and linked attendee profiles below provide context for the people contributing to this event. Explore their roles and organisations alongside the sessions to understand the perspectives represented. Where an earlier London edition exists, its event page offers a separate record of that gathering, including its own participants and highlights. Invitations for upcoming editions are reviewed by the organising team; submitting a request does not automatically confirm attendance. AIM Media House organises the series, with each city edition retaining its own date, venue and programme.
