Why learn from one peer when you can learn from three? In this unorthodox—but highly effective—breakout session, you’ll hear from multiple members of your community. Each speaker will take the floor for 10 minutes to share the most valuable lessons they’ve gleaned from their time in leadership. Get ready for a fast-paced exchange of practical insights, real-world experiences, and actionable takeaways.

• How passwordless authentication integrates into a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy
• Proven methods for accelerating passwordless adoption across your organization
• Practical approaches for reducing human risk and strengthening your overall security posture

Agentic AI is revolutionizing data strategy, empowering leaders to automate decision making and optimize operations with minimal human intervention.

Join this roundtable discussion as peers explore how to:

• Unlock autonomous AI for smarter, faster data-driven decisions
• Mitigate risks by mastering AI governance and bias control
• Drive real business impact with scalable agentic AI strategies

In today’s evolving threat landscape, the line between physical and cybersecurity is increasingly blurred. As organizations face sophisticated attacks that target both digital infrastructure and physical assets, a siloed approach to security is no longer sufficient.

Join this roundtable session to discuss:

• Integrating physical and cybersecurity strategies
• Breaking down barriers between security teams
• Strengthening overall security posture

CIOs are under increasing pressure to deliver measurable value and must proactively evolve their IT operating models to drive enterprise objectives. However, a disconnect between a task-driven culture and an outcomes-oriented mindset can hinder sustained business growth.
