Southern California CIO Inner Circle

Advancing digital initiatives, building new processes, and ensuring every business outcome is secure are key objectives for today’s CIO. Though the CIO’s role in managing information and data assets hasn’t significantly changed in terms of accountability and responsibility, their role in driving insights, decision-making and business outcomes has taken a dramatic shift, compelling CIOs to take a more deliberate approach.

In this engaging dinner conversation among peers, CIOs will discuss the shifts they've made in their data and analytics strategies and how they are maintaining a secure business internally and externally without disrupting the user experience.
