The CIO Initiative®

“Out of all the opportunities to “plug in” and discuss IT industry trends, I have made it a priority to attend this event for past few years.  Owlpoint has done a great job gathering CIO’s, authors, and industry leaders to share knowledge and insights.  Logistics have always been first class and served as a great opportunity to informally network and build meaningful relationships.”

I find the CIO Initiative Summit to be a great, engaging forum for being able to interact with true experts and leaders in the industry and both learn and share ideas, experiences and improvement opportunities.   The focused, more intimate setting and gathering enables tremendous interaction and synergies that is hard to get from other forums!

“CIO Initiative Summits provide a unique opportunity to network with other IT executives and learn from their experiences.  The Summits are small enough to promote direct personal interaction with other IT leaders and yet broad enough to encompass a wide variety of views and opinions.  Unlike many other meetings, I’ve obtained information and advice at past Summits that is substantive, actionable and directly applicable to the challenges facing my IT team.”

“This conference is a must for CIOs tasked with technology leadership in ever increasing complex organizations. With more conferences than ever being held, and my ever busier calendar, its important to be selective about which conferences I attend. The CIO Initiative consistently offers the most high-level, impactful and transformational content along with valuable networking opportunities I can’t find at any other conference.”

“The CIO Summit Initiative in San Antonio provided an intimate platform to share successes and failures as well as current initiatives with a peer group that covered many industries outside of the Silicon Valley bubble.  The format was a great way for the attendees to both present and participate in the discussions around each of the poinenient areas of focus.  CXO attendees were honest and open, we forged friendships outside of our common role related challenges and I look forward to connecting with them again at next year’s event.”

“Unlike a typical conference, this was an intimate gathering of technology executives whose primary objective was to advance the role of the CIO as a business leader.  Everyone in attendance was there to share insights with one another in what could be best described as a servant leadership think- tank. “
