For success, the CIO must focus on the business - optimizing the use of people, process and technology to have a strong positive impact on the business."
The CIO Executive Leadership Summit will provide an exceptional opportunity to learn from the experiences of top transformational CIOs. Speakers include: Larry Bonfante, CIO, US Tennis Association and President of the SIM Fairfield/Westchester chapter; Joseph Seibert, Senior Vice President and CIO, The New York Times Company; Greg Fell, CIO, Terex Corp.; Dr. Howard Rubin of Rubin Worldwide;, Michelle Garvey, Global CIO, Warnaco; Linda Ban, Global CIO Study Director, IBM Institute for Business Value; Dan Petrozzo, CIO - Enterprise IT, Fidelity Investments; Jean Hill, Vice President, Federal Reserve Bank of New York and with a Special Briefing by Andre Mendes, Senior Vice President, Strategic Planning & Global CIO of Special Olympics International.
