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.

Deliver Digital Innovation to Drive Value Across the Enterprise

Technology and security executives must lead across the C-Suite to place the delivery and management of digital capabilities where the most value will be created. Though challenges abound, leaders have to drive the democratization of digital delivery while maintaining the appropriate amount of risk mitigation.

Maximize Existing Resources to Optimize Emerging Costs

Growth is the number one business priority for CEOs, and new technology brings higher expectations for productivity and efficiency. CIOs & CISOs are expected to maximize the value of their current technology and security investments in a way that allows for bolder investment in new digital value-drivers.

Secure the Organization Through Advanced Technology Adoption

Novel technology disruptions like GenAI and AI in general naturally create uncertainty for organizations. Economic headwinds and geopolitical activity only add to the chaos. To combat this, CIOs and CISOs must proactively lead their organization toward finding the right balance of business impact today and strategic change for the future.
