Chief Information Officer
Simone Bock is Chief Information Officer at BNP Paribas Personal Investors Germany Austria (a unit of BNP Paribas).

Simone Bock is 45 years old and has been Chief Information Officer (CIO) at BNP Paribas Personal Investors Germany Austria (a unit of BNP Paribas) since 2018. Prior to that, she spent a total of nine years at the Allianz Group in various positions, where she was responsible for global digital transformation projects in a management role, among other things. During her studies in the U.S., she discovered her passion for implementing software, at that time it was SAP for university. Since then, she has been fascinated by the resolution of the tension between old preservation and new design in the interaction between man and machine. As a former competitive athlete, she learned at a young age to view resistance as a challenge rather than a threat and to courageously try out new things. She wants to share her experiences with the participants in an inspiring exchange and encourage them with a clear message: Success and career are directly related to one’s own attitude, a portion of courage and the ambition to pursue and realize one’s goals.
