The ability to pivot nimbly in a rapidly changing world can be a major asset. However, making the transition demands the reimagining of business models, technology strategies and company culture—all at the same time. Restructuring a segregated project management model reaps major rewards at the divisional and enterprise-wide levels.

Innovation and progress are the lifeblood of a robust enterprise. With a more complex operating model comes the need for a much more robust security strategy. To improve business outcomes, the forward-thinking leader is continuously adopting new technologies and protecting existing assets.

In this interactive conversation, CIOs & CISOs will have the opportunity to discuss what organizations are doing to embrace the digital era.

Topic 1: Embracing an Age of Agility

What are you doing to create an agile enterprise culture?
How are you implementing a continuous delivery model
How are you fostering rapid innovation?

Topic 2: Securing the Next Wave of Technology

How are you embracing new technologies and innovative improvements?
How are you combining high visibility and zero trust to protect individual and collective assets?
What advancements are needed for a more robust security strategy?
