Agenda
Coming Soon
The CIO & CISO Executive Summit agendas are driven by the mission-critical priorities identified among the community. Each agenda is uniquely crafted By CIOs & CISOs, For CIOs & CISOs, and will be available closer to the gathering. All topics and sessions will be inspired by the following themes.
Cybersecurity and Managing Risk in a Changing Landscape
With cyber threats growing in scale and complexity, CIOs and CISOs must take a proactive approach to risk management. Effective leadership means regularly assessing vulnerabilities, strengthening defences, and ensuring the organisation is prepared to respond to incidents. The focus is on protecting critical assets, maintaining trust, and supporting business continuity.
Leading & Securing Artificial Intelligence Adoption
As AI investment accelerates, CIOs and CISOs are tasked with not only driving adoption but also ensuring that implementation is secure, responsible, and aligned with organizational goals. Leaders must navigate risks, build trust across the business, and establish clear frameworks for safe and effective AI integration—laying the groundwork for sustainable transformation.
CIOs and CISOs as Innovation Leaders
As technology becomes central to business success, CIOs and CISOs are now at the forefront of driving innovation. Today’s leaders are expected to go beyond managing IT and security—they must champion transformative initiatives, support business growth and ensure digital trust. This evolution demands new skills, closer collaboration and a more influential role in shaping strategic direction.
