Virtual Briefing: IT 2030: How CIOs Should Reinvent IT for the AI Age

AI is not just a powerful technology delivering business value, it is a force that requires CIOs to look beyond deploying new tools and instead rethink how IT operates, delivers value and prepares for the future. As AI’s influence grows, leaders must make deliberate choices about talent, processes and technology to ensure their organizations are positioned for long‑term success. Will some parts of IT disappear? Will new capabilities or teams be needed? The organization could be radically different — for better or worse. It’s up to CIOs to choose and lead IT’s reinvention by 2030.

This invitation-only, complimentary virtual briefing will outline the key decisions CIOs face as they navigate this shift. We’ll share what it takes to reinvent IT for the AI era, highlight emerging pitfalls and offer a preview of approaches to help IT organizations plan and move forward. You will also hear from a former IT leader, now a Gartner Executive Partner, who will share how they are helping clients navigate this AI journey
