Westport, CT — December 1, 2023 — HMG Strategy, the World’s #1 platform for enabling technology executives to reimagine the enterprise and reshape the business world, is excited to announce that the 2023 Global CISO Executive Leadership Summit will be taking place on December 12 at The Harvard Club of New York City.
