Agenda

Coming Soon

The CIO Executive Summit agendas are driven by the mission-critical priorities identified among the community. Each agenda is uniquely crafted ‘by CIOs, for CIOs,’ and will be available closer to the gathering. All topics and sessions will be inspired by the following themes.

Collaboration and Co-Ownership to Drive Digital Innovation

So-called “digital vanguard” CIOs and their counterparts across the C-suite will achieve higher success by working closely together, co-owning digital initiatives, and sharing accountability across the business for optimal results.

Empowering Business Technologists

Technology leaders should encourage collaboration between IT and non-IT staff at all levels by providing resources, training, and platforms that facilitate the development of digital solutions across the enterprise.

Focus on Architecture and Innovation

Prioritizing the creation of a robust platform experience, ensuring architectural awareness, and co-creating innovation in all business areas will drive digital leadership and secure practices company-wide.
