Americas, St. Petersburg, Florida
April 27-29, 2026
Cyber resilience today is more than a failsafe - it's a core business strategy. Yet data, IT, and security leaders too often operate in silos when business continuity, risk management, and innovation demand shared responsibility. This gathering of accomplished women leaders creates a rare forum to break down those walls. Together, we'll workshop strategies, design cross-functional approaches, and exchange hard-won insights to ensure our organizations stay ahead of disruption - before the inevitable incident becomes a material event.
This event is women-focused, designed to address the unique challenges, opportunities, and leadership perspectives of women in data, IT, and security. We welcome attendance from all genders who support the mission of amplifying women's voices and advancing gender equity. All attendees will be expected to respect the purpose of the event, embrace allyship, and contribute to a supportive, inclusive environment.
