WHAT PEOPLE THINK: LINKEDIN
Paul Morgan, ICT Director at Farrell Heyworth
Excellent range of CIOs to network with, an interesting range of topics on pres-
entation and an engaging set of vendors with interesting and relevant products.
Gordon Tredgold, Corporate Vice President Global IT Service Delivery at Henkel
Great event, relevant presentations, great discussion, excellent networking oppor-
tunity
Mark Jacot, Head of IT at The Co-operative Banking Group
Great event, high quality workshops and vendors and a great networking oppor-
tunity - thanks
Scott Wise, Chief Technology Officer - Manufacturing, Mining, Oil&Gas Verticals at
BT Global Services
Great learning event, insightful presentations and people networking.
Chris Burgess, IT Director, Expedia, Inc
Really enjoyable event with a great mix of content, networking opportunities and
smart people and some compelling vendor conversations in more intimate/rele-
vant setting than most other events I’ve attended. Would recommend to others.
Tim Burnett, CISO at Atos
An excellent event, well organised and some excellent insights into addressing the
shared problems we all face, as well as a chance to network. And not too sales-
heavy, either, so a much more pleasant experience than other conferences!
Stephen Harries, Office of the Chief Information Officer at Welsh Government
A really excellent event, extremely well organised (by a company based here in
Wales!). Some very interesting topics, thought-provoking discussions/debates, and
something to interest everyone. Useful 1-1 meetings with suppliers, who were gen-
uinely there to listen and learn from potential customers, not just to push product
regardless. A big “hats off” to the team, for some of the best organisation and
support I’ve seen in 30 years of attending these sorts of events.

Peter clarke, CTO at Isle of Man Government, Department of Economic Develo-
ment
Highly recommended event, an excellent blend of workshops, discussions and
areas to network. Thanks for the opportunity..
Sebastian Grady, President and COO at Rimini Street
We attend 30+ events a year including many CIO events and Procurement
Events. This is one of the best.events we attended. We had quality meetings with
CIO delegates and believe will create some great partnerships. Craig Shipley was
one of the best concierges we have ever worked with.
Cisco Sanchez, Managing Director EMEA at FedEx Express EMEA
Amazing event with relevant topics, great way to collaborate with your peers in
the same industry. All workshops, panels and discussions were from very high calib-
er people. A must attend event!
Christophe Lemaire, CIO at Eurostar
Good opportunities of networking in an intimate atmosphere, great organisation
and venue. Highly recommended!
Shahrokh Mohseni, Vice President (VP) Enterprise Integration, Business Process
Integration and the IT Innovation Lab at Deutsche Telekom UK Limited
A very well organised event - a great opportunity to discuss latest IT trends across
different industries, share experiences and exchange ideas and thoughts with
other IT colleagues and suppliers. I specially enjoyed our discussions on agile, big
data and executing innovation…
Richard B., Programme Director - Finance & Grants Systems Transition at Save the
Children
A very worthwhile, well arranged and informative event; diverse range of speak-
ers and topics and a good range of supplier offerings with a nice balance be-
tween workshops and meetings. I would certainly attend future events.
