Recommended by Afonso Eça
(Scientific Coordinator of the FinTech Innovation & Competition Programme)
From politics to technology, from Ricardo Araújo Pereira to Raquel Vaz Pinto, José Maria Pimentel hosts a series of debates of ideas and points of view with those who study and think about the issues on the table.

Digital transformation is a high-priority topic for almost every company - and marketing is undoubtedly one of the business areas at the heart of that transformation. While fundamentals like branding remain more relevant than ever, the field has expanded to include a focus on growth, data and new modes of creativity. In this podcast, McKinsey experts discuss the impact of this new scope on the role of the Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) specifically, and on the marketing organisation in general.
