Last year's CIO|08 examined the forces of technology and business disruption and what IT executives needed to manage and navigate them successfully. Attendees discovered how to prepare for, handle and potentially benefit from upcoming disruptive or game-changing influences and their impacts across their organizations, markets and the world around us.  We hope you had the opportunity to hear from and exchange ideas with your peers, thought leaders, industry luminaries and recognized leaders at this highly interactive and thought provoking event.   The CIO Year Ahead summit is also the place to meet and honor the latest inductees into the CIO Hall of Fame, which now includes some of the most revered and recognized members of the CIO community.  Please click on this link to view the Hall of Fame nomination spot http://www.cio.com/cio-awards/cio-hall-of-fame/index.  We hope to see you at this year's CIO: The Year Ahead Summit, being held November 9-11, 2008, at Loews Coronado Bay in Coronado, CA.  Please check back soon for updated program information.
