At 42, Murdoch has two decades of experience in the global market, having served as chairman of BSkyB, Sky Italia, and Sky Deutschland, as well as CEO of BSkyB and STAR TV.

Previously, Murdoch was co-COO of Fox. With his recent promotion to CEO of one of the world's most iconic media corporations, Murdoch - alongside his brother, Executive Chairman Lachlan Murdoch - will follow in his father's footsteps, lending his reputation for innovation to his family's empire of cable news, satellite broadcasting, streaming TV (Hulu), and legacy programming ("The Simpsons," "Family Guy," Fox News).

The brothers have big shoes to fill. 21st Century Fox commands a staggering global audience of 1.5 billion every day. With disruption happening everywhere - cord-cutting, piracy, ad-dodging, virtual reality, and the meteoric rise of mobile - Murdoch will speak about his vision for a media landscape that's shifting by the minute.
