International Executive Roundtables

Since 1989, the Institute for International Business has hosted the International Executive Roundtable lecture series for university students, staff, faculty, and members of the international business community. These events serve as a forum in which executives and government officials meet with university faculty, staff, and students to discuss timely issues in international business. They also educate students, staff, and faculty about international business practices and provide exposure to the experiences of executives in the global marketplace. International Executive Roundtables allow lecturers to speak on real world scenarios and pass valuable research insights on to faculty.

The IIB designates featured lectures by renowned speakers as distinguished lectures: Robert Reynolds Distinguished Lecture (led and hosted by CU Denver's Business School), The Greg and Carol Jemal-Gibson Distinguished Lecture, and the Burton Boothby Distinguished Lecture.

Lecture Overview

Experian, most commonly known in the U.S. for its credit bureau services, is more than 100 years old. Incorporated in Ireland, this multinational company offers a wide range of data, analytics, software and services to help individuals and organizations make better decisions. UC Denver Business School and IIB Alumnus, Becky Park, has spent the past three years in both global and regional product marketing roles for Experian. Her discussion will include (1) an overview of Experian’s global market opportunities and how they plan to win by leveraging innovation, (2) Experian’s decentralized matrix structure which is both an advantage and a challenge, (3) the entrepreneurial characteristics that drive both successes and failures in a multinational corporation, and (4) global product marketing as an expanding profession.
