How Innovate Summit Education Is Curated
Innovate Summit education intentionally reflects today’s CISO priorities because it is guided by our Advisory Board and post-summit feedback. Our agenda continually addresses the real challenges CISOs are actively facing—focusing on strategy, execution, and leadership—and remains free from vendor influence.
This collaborative approach enables us to provide education that is timely, relevant, and practical—centered on strategy, execution, and leadership.
