Nielsen has been evolving ever since David Kenny became CEO in 2018. We will explore with Nielsen’s CEO the specifics in how they are transforming the business—and to the degree that they are succeeding.

The company has written about focusing on higher margin products and services, as well as increasing their operational efficiency, driving for permanent cost structure reduction. Kenny explained in a press release that together, these efforts will mean increased cash generation and will provide added flexibility to invest in key growth initiatives. Today we will explore with Nielsen’s CEO the specifics in how they are transforming the business—and to the degree that they are succeeding and what they will be looking forward to.

And of course, Kenny is also the Chief Diversity Officer; he said he took this additional title because as CEO he is in the most powerful position to make changes and having inclusion and equality at every level.

Media Guru events are well-known for their “no speeches, no Power Point” promise: Just compelling one-on-one conversation with a fascinating personality making news in the media business, followed by Q+A.

Quantum Principal Ava Seave will be moderating this event.
