Overview

What’s next for IT Governance?

This year’s IT Governance Event will explore how IT Governance evolves to drive value, align strategy, manage performance, and mitigate risk. The event will cover the growing significance of Third-Party Risk Management, insights into the complexities of Large System Transformation, and the influence of regulations shaping the cyber and risk agenda.

You will engage in interactive breakout sessions in our Insights Center and Innovation Lab, focusing on "Third Party Risk Management" and "The impact of regulations on cyber governance."

We’re also delighted to virtually welcome Prof. Dr. Steven De Haes, Dean of Antwerp Management School, who will share his insights and latest research on Board dynamics and governing Technology.

Don’t miss this chance to gain practical knowledge, exchange ideas, and connect with peers from across the industry.

We can’t wait to see you there!

Our office is conveniently located next to the Kalkbreite/Bhf. Wiedikon tram station, and we highly recommend using public transportation. While there are a few blue-zone parking spots around the building, please note that we cannot guarantee their availability.
