What's on the agenda

The conversations CIOs and CISOs are having right now.

Every session is built around the real challenges on technology leaders' desks in 2027, spanning agentic AI, cyber resilience, platform modernization and demonstrating ROI at board level.

Agentic AI at enterprise scale

Most organizations have run AI experiments. Far fewer have scaled them. What separates the leaders, and what does the path from pilot to production actually look like?

The AI-ready operating model

Talent, structure, funding and governance. How CIOs are reshaping their organizations so AI delivers value everywhere, not in pockets.

AI governance and the CISO imperative

As AI becomes operational, the security and governance surface expands dramatically. Where does accountability sit, and how are security leaders keeping pace?

Cyber resilience beyond the breach

Boards no longer ask if you will be attacked. They ask how fast you will recover. Building resilience into operations, supply chains and culture.

Platform modernization in the AI era

Legacy estates were not built for machine-speed workloads. Sequencing modernization so it funds itself and clears the path for what comes next.

Proving value at board level

Technology spend is under more scrutiny than ever. How leaders are measuring, communicating and defending the return on AI and security investment.

The format

Two tracks. One community.

The morning and late afternoon bring everyone together. Either side of lunch, the day splits into dedicated CIO and CISO tracks so every session speaks directly to your seat at the table.

CIO Track

The AI-ready operating model, platform modernization in the AI era, and a panel on proving value with AI. Built for the leaders accountable for turning technology into enterprise performance.

CISO Track

Securing agentic AI, cyber resilience beyond the breach, and the 2027 threat landscape. Built for the leaders defending the enterprise while the attack surface transforms around them.

Shared sessions include the opening panel, the agentic AI keynote, a joint CIO and CISO fireside, and closing roundtables, before champagne and dinner together.

The day at a glance

Your day, your track.

9:30 AM

Registration, coffee and networking

10:00 AM

Opening panel: Technology leadership in 2027

The CIO and CISO agendas are converging faster than the org chart. A panel of enterprise technology leaders opens the day with a candid look at what has changed in the last twelve months, where boards are applying pressure, and which bets are paying off. Expect honest answers, not vendor talking points.

10:45 AM

Keynote: Agentic AI at enterprise scale

Autonomous AI agents are moving from demo to deployment, planning, acting and transacting on behalf of the enterprise. This keynote examines what agentic AI looks like in production at scale: the architecture decisions, the guardrails, the economics, and the early lessons from organizations already running agents in live workflows.

CIO Track

11:30 AM

The AI-ready operating model

AI value stalls when it lives in a lab. This session digs into how CIOs are restructuring talent, funding and governance so AI capability sits inside the business, not beside it: federated versus central teams, product-based funding, and the skills bets worth making now.

12:30 PM

Lunch and peer networking

1:30 PM

Platform modernization in the AI era

Legacy estates were never designed for machine-speed workloads or agent-driven processes. CIOs share how they are sequencing modernization so it funds itself: which systems to retire, which to wrap, and how to make the case when the board wants AI outcomes, not infrastructure spend.

2:30 PM

Panel: Proving value with AI

Every board wants AI. Few agree on how to measure it. A panel of CIOs compares how they define, track and defend AI ROI, from productivity metrics to revenue attribution, and what they say when a program underdelivers.

CISO Track

11:30 AM

Securing agentic AI

When AI agents can act, the blast radius of a compromise changes completely. This session covers identity and access for non-human actors, permissioning and oversight of autonomous workflows, and where accountability sits when an agent gets it wrong.

12:30 PM

Lunch and peer networking

1:30 PM

Cyber resilience beyond the breach

Boards no longer ask if you will be attacked, they ask how fast you will recover. CISOs share how they are building resilience into operations, third parties and culture: recovery time as a board metric, supply chain exposure, and rehearsing for the bad day before it arrives.

2:30 PM

Panel: The 2027 threat landscape

AI-assisted attacks, deepfake-enabled fraud, and adversaries moving at machine speed. A panel of security leaders maps the threats defining 2027, which defenses are actually holding, and where they are placing their next dollar of security investment.

3:30 PM

Joint CIO and CISO fireside: Leading together in the AI era

Both rooms rejoin for a fireside on the partnership that determines whether AI transformation succeeds: the CIO and CISO relationship. How the two roles are dividing accountability for AI risk, where the friction points sit, and what a genuinely joined-up technology leadership team looks like in practice.

4:15 PM

Peer roundtables, held under Chatham House Rules

5:15 PM

Champagne reception

6:00 PM

Three course gala dinner
