CIO 100 Symposium & Awards

Strategizing the Right Tech-Ready Infrastructure for any Future

JW Marriott Hotel Marina, Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Overview

As new-age IT projects continue to proliferate, CIOs, CTOs, and their teams are embracing a variety of cutting-edge strategies to add intelligence to the ever-growing volume of data, build a culture of innovation, and accelerate their digital infrastructure road maps. The innovation train is moving fast. As such, organizations must ramp up their skill sets and address a variety of pressing challenges to ensure they are well positioned to take full advantage of technology models like AI and zero trust.

In 2023 'Role and Influence of the Technology Decision Maker' study, 61% of enterprise IT decision makers believe that the tech buying process is becoming increasingly complex. The major technology disruptions seen since 2022 have led many companies to pivot toward monetizing their biggest innovations. Today, the world’s best leaders are building distributed systems designed for growth and making cloud-native tech ready for any future – powered by the likes of AI and GenAI.


The event will be centered around the 2024 award-winners, who shared stories of leadership, innovation, and their experiences with the latest technologies, including generative AI, automation, quantum and more.
