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.
Create Alignment with Business to Demonstrate IT & Security’s True Value
CIOs and CISOs must balance their dual role of strengthening the IT & Security framework whilst enabling business. By communicating why investment into IT & Security matters, CIOs and CISOs will demonstrate their value to the wider organisation.
Unlock AI’s Potential through Trust, Leadership Buy-In and Governance
Providing a secure environment in which AI is managed effectively and integrated into applications and processes requires a robust governance framework and board buy-in. Organisations with a clear roadmap on how to leverage AI whilst mitigating risk will drive business outcomes.
Converging IT & Digital Transformation to Increase Operational Efficiencies
As organisations continue to innovate, CIOs and CISOs can leverage data and analytics to deliver technology and security solutions faster. IT & Security leaders are fostering talent to propel the organisation’s digital transformation whilst keeping it secure.
