"We are living in the age of digital urgency where roughly half of Fortune 500 companies will no longer be operating in the next ten years," said Hunter Muller, HMG Strategy's President & CEO. "In order for companies to succeed in these highly disruptive times, CIOs and technology executives need to think differently and work closely with the CEO and the board of directors to identify new business models that can deliver a competitive edge."

The Financial Services CIO Summit will kick-off with an HMG Lead Innovate Disrupt Tech Talk featuring an executive interview between Hunter Muller and Sangy Vatsa, EVP & CIO at Comerica Bank which will focus on why IT is more relevant than ever and why technology executives must focus on the trimodal aspects of leadership – operate, transform and disrupt – in order to execute in the modern enterprise.

This interview will be followed by an executive panel discussion where top technology leaders will discuss the role of technology executives in creating new business models, identifying new market opportunities and reimagining the future state of the enterprise.

Other compelling sessions will include an executive keynote from Ed Soo Hoo, Data Center Evangelist, Lenovo, who will discuss how he uses four-letter words to drive transformational changes in the digital enterprise; a panel of top information security executives who will explore effective approaches for striking a balance between agility, innovation and security; a panel of top search and industry executives who will share the key attributes and leadership capabilities that make some financial services technology executives more successful than others; an executive interview between Hunter Muller and Harry Moseley, CIO at Zoom, where they will discuss the future of work, video communications, team collaboration, office design and how AI will be utilized to help make meetings over video better than in-person meetings; an executive panel that will explore advances in financial services technologies that are driving a competitive edge and speed to market; and an executive panel of top-tier CIOs and technology executives who will share their roles in driving innovation and creating frictionless customer experiences.
