With the Olympics off to an incredible start, Jim welcomes a guest on The CMO Podcast who's in the middle of all the excitement–Gene Foca, the Chief Marketing and Revenue Officer at Getty Images. Founded in London in 1995 by Mark Getty and Jonathan Klein, Getty Images is a global visual content creator and marketplace, with annual sales approaching $1 billion. Getty has an enormous library of stock images, editorial photography, video, and music; each year they cover more than 160,000 news, sports, and entertainment events. It operates primarily as a B2B company, with clients in advertising and design agencies, media companies, and in-house creative groups in corporations.

Gene has worked as CMO at Getty for seven years, and the company added Chief Revenue Officer to his remit last year. Way back, Gene studied accounting as an undergraduate at Notre Dame, but quickly shifted to a diverse career path in marketing. Gene spent 10 years of his early career at WarnerMedia, before working at News Corporation, Amazon and Fresh Direct and then moving to Getty in 2017 as CMO. As the world celebrates the Olympics, Jim speaks with the CMO who helps bring those images home.
