Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Bloomberg is one of the most recognized companies in the world. Let’s talk a little bit about your background and where your focus is today.

Topic 2 - Help us understand the scope of Bloomberg’s role in the overall financial markets, in terms of delivering data to clients and partners. 

Topic 3 - The demands of financial markets (latency, data volume, security, etc.) have previously mandated that resources be local (on-prem, specialized co-lo facilities, etc.), but we’re hearing more and more about how financial services are leveraging the public cloud. Can you talk about how this hybrid cloud model might be impacting data management?

Topic 5 - There is a ton of innovation happening around the financial services markets, from how services are delivered to who is using the services. How do these changes shape the way that Bloomberg has to partner with other companies to remain innovative and competitive?
