Leading the Digital Society
This year’s theme at Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo, Orlando is Leading the Digital Society. Today, technology is shaping every aspect of how we work, communicate and live. A new digital society is emerging, connecting everyone and everything like never before. For CIOs and their teams, every decision has a powerful impact not only on business success, but on the way the world at large operates.
As the digital society continues to expand, business and IT leaders have a critical say in how this society will be defined. The future is built on our choices, not just about what we can do, but why we are doing it. Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo will help CIOs understand how to shape and lead the digital society through powerful discussions, influential connections and strategic insights.
Join us on Monday, October 21 at 9:30 AM Eastern for the Gartner Opening Keynote that will address key challenges and opportunities CIOs face today and present a compelling vision for the changing role of IT leaders in the emerging digital society.
