Dear Colleagues,

The time is now to come together in a spirit of collaboration. You will find just the right setting — comfortable and private — at the Minneapolis CISO Executive Summit, built “by CISOs, for CISOs.”

Now in its fourth year, this globally recognized leadership conference is one that we are proud to offer here in Minneapolis. Our Twin Cities region has a strong, diversified economy where average unemployment is consistently below the national average, and per capita income is above it. We enjoy our status as an important financial center and one of America’s major high-technology centers. Greater Minneapolis is rich soil for these industries, as well as numerous others that you represent.

The CISO Executive Summit agenda is truly timely, relevant and thought-provoking for enterprise CISOs throughout the Twin Cities. Together, we will hone our leadership skills and challenge one another to new heights in our respective organizations. We will share best practices and discuss areas of pressing concern to IT security executives determined to lead the charge throughout 2013 and beyond.

Thank you for your interest in joining us for this memorable day. We are confident that the relationships you develop here will prove to be crucial to your continuing success.

On behalf of the entire Governing Body, we look forward to meeting with you.

Sincerely,

Your Governing Body Co-Chairs
