Topical and engaging 90-minute virtual CIO and CISO summits, focused on reimagining the business and the future of work, have drawn thousands of top-tier security leaders and technology executives since early March
WESTPORT, CT. – June 26, 2020 – HMG Strategy, the world’s #1 digital platform for connecting technology executives to reimagine the enterprise and reshape the business world, is excited to announce its upcoming lineup of Virtual CIO Summits in Philadelphia, New York and Silicon Valley after zooming to the top of the industry as the premier producer of Virtual CIO and CISO Summits since shifting to a digital events format in early March.
HMG Strategy produced 10 Virtual Summits, Virtual Briefings and webinars in the first 30 days of the work-at-home environment – drawing 150 to 300+ technology executives to each event – with 60+ Virtual Events scheduled through August 2020.
