Digital at The Met Museum and Harvard
One would be hard pressed to find more fitting representatives for the digital transformation in arts and education than Chief Digital Officers Sree Sreenivasan, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and Perry Hewitt, at Harvard University.

They spoke about their roles heading the digital departments of the two legendary cultural institutions at a keynote panel moderated by Eric Hellweg, Managing Director and Digital Strategy Editorial Director at the Harvard Business Review.

View the video of their keynote from the 2014 CDO Summit here.

Learn how the panelists:
  • digitized their institutions’ content into entirely new formats;
  • became “accessible without being facile;”
  • made their institutions relatable and relevant to those in the digital world; 
  • engaged both traditional patrons and new audiences;
  • empowered individual voices rather than only institutional ones;
  • convened people digitally around physical events;
  • partnered with stakeholders who had a role in their success;
  • considered their digital competition beyond the education and arts sectors;
  • leveraged data to build new apps and engage patrons and new audiences.
The lessons they imparted in this keynote are broadly applicable to any industry, well beyond the arts and education. 

The best place to learn more is at the fast-approaching 3rd CDO Summit (and the first in the UK), presented by Accenture Digital and hosted by BBC Worldwide in London on 29 October.
