ITSMF FORUMS
Connect & Grow
on a Deeper Level
CxO Forum
C-suite peers convene for meaningful, forward-looking discussions on topics that impact business value, influence workplace culture, and transform the industry. Participants gain rare insights from subject matter experts, as well as from each other’s career experiences, which enhance their executive capabilities and energize their leadership efforts within their own companies. Technology leaders (CIO, CTO, CISO and CDO), as well as other strategic organizational leaders (CEO, COO, CAO, CSO and Managing Directors) will benefit from the executive-level knowledge share that occurs during this Forum.
Ignite Forum
Designed to boost excellence and fuel innovation in both emerging and established entrepreneurs, the Ignite Forum sparks future achievement. Participants gain valuable insights, exchange best practices, and build connections with dynamic professionals from a variety of technology backgrounds that drive groundbreaking industry contributions and growth.
Emerge Forum
Women of color encounter unique workplace challenges, including a lack of peers and mentors with whom they can confide in, collaborate, and draw support from. The Emerge Forum offers a place to connect with women technology professionals who share the goals of becoming stronger, more confident leaders and advancing their technology careers.
(Designed for women and non-binary technology professionals of color)
Elevate Forum
To foster stronger, more supportive connections between Black men technology professionals within the growing ITSMF family, the Elevate Forum offers an intimate venue for candid, multifaceted conversations in a safe environment. Professional topics, such as career growth and challenges, as well as personal topics, such as financial health and physical well-being, are addressed in this forum.
(Designed for Black men and non-binary technology professionals)
CISO Forum
Interactive panel discussion addressing the topic of Cyber Security defense from the perspective of the role of the CISO, the leadership and organizational expectations of the role, the industry engagement required, and the human capital strategy required to be successful in this role. The session will be led by an industry leader and will consist of panelists with key roles in Cyber Security & Organizational Risk.
I have been to several other minority focused conferences and events
but I have never observed such a high level of professionalism and sense of family.
My experience has driven me to the decision to attend as many ITSMF events as possible
throughout my career.
