2025 theme: CIO leadership in an AI world

With strong IT budgets projected into 2025, organisations continue investing in digital transformation. AI adoption is accelerating rapidly—89% of IT leaders are now exploring or using AI, up from 72% in 2023, highlighting its growing impact across business functions.
The 2025 conference will focus on how CIOs are leading in an AI-driven world. As GenAI scales across enterprises, leaders are building cloud-native, data-centric solutions while managing associated risks.

The rich legacy of CIO100
The CIO100 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.
