CIO Summit: The CIO's Role in Reimagining and Reinventing the Business Will Power the Discussion at HMG Strategy's Silicon Valley CIO Conference


MENLO PARK, Calif., Aug. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- In the heart of Silicon Valley, technology executives know all too well that companies which fail to disrupt themselves risk extinction. Because the CIO is at the center of the enterprise, she or he is uniquely positioned to identify how technology, people and processes can be unified to create new business models and profitable revenue streams for the future survival of the business. The leadership traits and business acumen required by CIOs to successfully navigate the company into the future will drive the discussion at the 2018 Silicon Valley CIO Executive Leadership Summit, produced by HMG Strategy, to be held on August 30, 2018 at the Rosewood Sand Hill in Menlo Park, CA.
