Our COO and CCO 1LOD forums take place quarterly in London, New York, Toronto, Hong Kong and Singapore.
Partnering with some of the world’s leading companies, Armstrong Wolfe runs quarterly Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Chief Control Officer (CCO, 1LOD) forums and workshops in New York, London, Toronto, Singapore and Hong Kong.
The firm also supports the industry through its regular Brexit dinner, FinTech conferences, and its commitment to behavioural change through events focused on conduct, ethics and leadership.
"Thank you so much for moderating the session and to the Sponsor's team for valuable inputs and guiding the conversation. Very enjoyable and insightful evening – I look forward to being involved in the 2019 initiatives."
“A thank you to Armstrong Wolfe for organizing the COO forums. I look forward to discussing key topics in the industry with peers at other organizations, as well as gaining the perspective from your sponsor.
It’s a great platform for further building the COO network, so we can coordinate on initiatives important to us.”
"At Societe Generale, we recognize and value what diversity brings to an organization, and we’re happy to partner with WCOOC to foster diversity and inclusion throughout the financial services industry. We believe that by continuing to seek out ideas and opinions from those that are different from us, we can build on stronger foundations."
Armstrong Wolfe's Women in the COO Community initiative is focused on encouraging more women into senior positions within Financial Services and facilitating a cross-industry dialogue amongst women in executive business management positions.
In January we were delighted to announce that Microsoft would be our Market Insight Partner for the COO Technology and Innovation forum in New York.

This virtual forum will take place on April 23rd with its focus looking into adapting to the new norm – WFH
