MMA Forms CDO Board, Taps GSK's Speichert To Chair It

The Mobile Marketing Association (MMA), which in recent years gradually transformed its board to be predominantly composed of CMOs (vs. mobile media suppliers), this morning unveiled a new board comprised of Chief Digital Officers of major marketers.

The MMA's new "CDO Board" is being chaired by Marc Speichert, the London-based CDO of consumer healthcare marketer GSK Consumer Healthcare.

The MMA said the focus of the CDO board will focus on more technical digital media issues that involve the "reengineering of businesses toward fully digital operations, from distribution to supply-chain reformation and from application of data to installation of martech."

Speichert previously was a member of the MMA's global board when he was CMO of L’Oreal.

Interestingly, the MMA noted that there currently are "5,000 people with Chief Digital Officer in their title," according to LinkedIn data.


In addition to Chairman Speichert, the CDO board is comprised of:
