About the Symposium
Innovation - In the Corporation and In the Garage
Please join us for the Third Annual
CIO Symposium, the only event that brings together CIOs and senior IT decision makers from the greater Cincinnati and Dayton area. With approximately 200 IT leaders in attendance each year, the first two Symposia were tremendous successes.
You will benefit from a day of insightful discussions, informative sessions concerning today's business and technology issues, and networking opportunities. This year, the Symposium will focus on the specific theme of Innovation, both in the corporate setting, and in the entrepreneurial domain. Presented by the
