SAN FRANCISCO, March 23, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- In today's fast-changing business landscape, it's not your competitors that threaten your company's success. It's your organization's willingness and capacity to embrace change and disrupt its existing business model. Because the CIO sits at the center of the business, she or he is uniquely positioned to partner with the C-suite and the board to identify and execute the changes that are needed to propel the business forward. The fearless leadership required by the CIO to drive these changes will be the focus of the discussion at the upcoming 2018 San Francisco CIO Executive Leadership Summit, produced by HMG Strategy, to be held on April 26, 2018 at the JW Marriott San Francisco Union Square in San Francisco, CA.
San Francisco CIO Summit has been cited by HPE as a 'must-attend' CIO conference this year.
"Successful CIOs are seizing the opportunity to act as the CEO of Technology," said Hunter Muller, HMG Strategy's President & CEO. "CIOs who lead courageously position themselves to reimagine and reinvent the enterprise in lockstep with the CEO and the board of directors."
The San Francisco CIO Executive Leadership Summit will kick-off with a compelling executive panel discussion that will explore how emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, blockchain, the Internet of Things, and data analytics are enabling companies to identify and act on new business opportunities, automate key aspects of their operations, and boost productivity.
