The world stage for ASEAN & HK IT innovation

In 2026, CIO Summit and CIO100 & CSO30 Awards ASEAN & HK unite to form CIO 100 Awards & Conference ASEAN & HK.

Centered on a prestigious award recognised across ASEAN & HK, this is your chance to be honoured alongside the world’s boldest IT innovators – and learn from their successes live on stage.

The rich legacy of CIO 100

The CIO 100 Award is a prestigious mark of excellence in enterprise IT—often referred to as the ‘Oscars of the IT industry’.

This tradition of honoring visionary CIOs began in the U.S. over three decades ago and is now celebrated annually in key technology markets including the UK, Singapore, Australia, Germany, South Korea, and India.

The co-located conference offers a unique platform for award winners to share their success stories with fellow IT leaders, creating an invaluable peer-to-peer learning experience that stands unmatched in the industry.
