THE GUEST
Dr. Ed Clark, Educator is a Technology Executive and Student Advocate. He is currently Chief Information Officer for the California State University system – the largest university system in the United States, spanning 23 campuses, 50K+ staff and nearly half a million students. At the beginning of 2025, CSU and OpenAI partnered to launch the largest deployment of AI in higher education, integrating AI across both its curriculum and operations. Ed's unconventional journey starts from English literature to technology leadership and becoming an award-winning CIO leading massive digital transformations. He's passionate about debunking myths around online education, arguing that truly effective online learning requires deep student engagement, not just "putting PowerPoint online."
