Over a dozen senior IT executives gathered in Toronto on March 5 to discuss ways and means of “Putting Business Value Creation on Steroids”, the latest CIO Master Series roundtable, produced by The IT Media Group (ITMG), one of Canada’s leading producers of events for IT executives.
The private event, sponsored by IBM Global Services Canada, attracted top IT executives from a variety of public and private organizations. Various industry segments were represented at the table, including financial services, automotive, healthcare, transportation, retail, building and real estate.
“The conversation was excellent. Participants drilled into some very interesting issues, such as fostering innovation in their organizations and creating the right conditions for IT to help drive business value,” said John Pickett, the event moderator and ITMG’s Principal and VP, Executive Programs.
“CIOs at these events appreciate the opportunity to discuss and debate issues amongst themselves, with a minimum of facilitation,” he added. “That’s the best way to get at the nub of these issues and bring out the best ideas and insights.”
Over 40 Canadian senior IT executives have taken part in the last three CIO Master Series roundtables alone, sharing best practices, taking away excellent insights and significantly expanding their personal networks. IT executives interested in joining these information-rich CIO events can visit ITMG’s events page and add their name to the VIP list.

Organizations expect their CIOs to protect enterprise data and technology assets from the growing volume of cyber threats. Unfortunately, the speed at which cyber-attacks emerge poses tough challenges for resource-constrained IT departments.
