Local - 2009 New Zealand CIO Summit
| July 21, 2009 | to | July 22, 2009 |
The 2009 CIO Summit will examine the growing importance of INSPIRATION, INNOVATION and INTEGRATION at organisations and how CIOs are the key drivers behind this.

As organisations face increasingly economic uncertainty, challenges keep growing and IT leaders are expected to deliver greater results within tighter budgets. What does this mean for CIOs? What challenges are they facing? Which skills are required not only to meet these challenges, but to become true leaders?
The 2009 CIO Summit will examine the growing importance of INSPIRATION, INNOVATION and INTEGRATION at organisations and how CIOs are the key drivers behind this.
