As companies race to unlock the potential of AI, connected products, and digital ecosystems, the ability to deliver human-centered innovation will define tomorrow's market leaders.

On May 1, 2025, business and technology leaders will gather at Union South on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus and online for the Wisconsin Digital Symposium. They will explore how to turn emerging technologies into sustainable growth-and Delve's EVP of Strategy & Design, Cortney Thompson Rowan, will be among those shaping the conversation.

The symposium, hosted by the University of Wisconsin E-Business Consortium (UWEBC), is a premier annual event for leaders navigating the opportunities and challenges of digital transformation. This year's program will focus on mastering digital ecosystems, leveraging AI-driven automation, and accelerating innovation across industries.

Rowan's keynote will explore how organizations can drive real-world impact by connecting advanced technologies with human needs, a principle that defines how Delve helps clients navigate complexity, align around bold opportunities, and build the digital ecosystems of tomorrow.

Rowan brings deep experience guiding Fortune 500s like Pfizer and 3M, government agencies like NASA and the U.S. Marine Corps, and fast-moving startups such as Symmons Evolution through high-stakes innovation. As a former Managing Director at Accenture and Director of Strategy at Altitude, she has led cross-disciplinary teams to deliver transformative results across life sciences, consumer goods, education, and more.

"At Delve, we believe true digital transformation is about more than adopting new technologies. It's about designing solutions that center on human needs and deliver real, lasting value," said Rowan. "I'm honored to share Delve's perspective on building future-ready digital ecosystems that thrive in today's rapidly shifting environment."
