The CIO Network Annual Meeting 2018 | The Wall Street Journal | 5 March 2018 | Hotel Nikko San Francisco, 222 Mason St, San Francisco, CA 94102, USA

The 2018 CIO Network annual meeting will bring together top industry leaders and WSJ editors to discuss the latest issues facing technology.

CIOs will have the opportunity to join off the record break out sessions to discuss the following critical issues:

The New Productivity In a world of automation, artificial intelligence, and troves of new data on business ops, the expectations for human performance are rising. How can we best deploy these new technologies and information sources to boost productivity?

Beyond the Cloud We are entering the post-cloud world. From computing on the edge to server-less computing, new infrastructures are shaping the way companies do business. What’s looking good?

Security, Security, Security A roomful of CIOs share best practices on making their businesses cyber secure and blunting the effect of attacks. What new technologies and strategies are getting traction?

Talent Hunt The search for talent is more important than ever, but it’s hampered by new rules on immigration and visas. Can partnerships with U.S. colleges and training institutions fill the gap? What are the best strategies to find the right talent and maximize the benefits of diversity?

The CIO’s Expanding Role What’s the best way to balance tech expertise with business acumen such that the CIO stays at the center of the company’s digital strategy and evolution?
