It has been a pivotal year for HotTopics and our community of C-suite leaders.
Abbey Road Studios in London hosted The Studio not once, but twice, bringing together over 500 C-suite leaders, from CIOs, CISOs, and data and digital leaders in our technology community, to marketing leaders and B2B CMOs. Not only has it fuelled deep conversations and new connections, it has also helped us create some fantastic thought leadership.
Timely, topical and expert, our filmed panel discussions feature leaders in discussion with other leaders, and are always full to the brim with lessons learned, keen insights and advice for fellow or would-be executives navigating global teams, a changing world and an ever-digitising horizon. The below, however, are our best performing panel discussions in terms of viewership; it is an unscientific (but interesting nonetheless) gauge as to the priorities C-suite leaders are choosing as we soon enter another year.

This is the last Editor's Letter of 2023. Thank you to all of you have read, replied, shared and commented socially about or to this Letter. Every week, dozens of news and developing stories emerge that impact the C-suite in some way. Condensing one or several into a short email newsletter is not without it's challenges, but it is incredibly satisfying—and I hope useful, as you begin your weeks.
Merry Christmas to all those who celebrate, and I hope you all have a restful, merry late December and New Year. See you in 2024.
