SONY DATA TEAM IS SOL POWERED
Sol Rashidi has docked at Sony Music in the new role of EVP/Chief Data Officer, responsible for building and leading a global team focused on advancing Sony Music’s data strategy and capabilities.
Formerly with Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines, Rashidi will also develop business intelligence and technology solutions, building and overseeing predictive tools and analytics platforms.
She is based in New York and reports to Dennis Kooker, President, Global Digital Business and U.S. Sales.
“Data and analytics now play a vital role in all phases of our business, and we are committed to investing in the skill sets and technologies that enhance our leadership in this critical area,” Kooker said. “Sol’s expertise in developing data insights that shape strategic thinking and drive business solutions will allow us to further enhance our opportunities with the creative community, our business partners and fans around the world.”
