The CTO Advisor Road Trip Jun 1 to Sep 3
So, Melissa (@MrsCTO) and I are jumping into a Ford F-250 and pulling a 28-foot Airstream Flying Cloud, aka the CTO Advisor Flying cloud a total of ~9,000 miles across our country. Why are we doing this crazy thing? Because we miss talking to the community. There’s something extremely satisfying about looking a peer in the face and talking about a challenge, a victory, or just talking shop. We’ll be bringing you those conversations from 14-different cities. We’ll meet with Architects, CIO’s, CTO’s, Vendor Executives, Marketers and talk about the past year and the future. We’ll get together and have drinks and break bread. We’ll have sponsored content where IT vendors show us what they’ve worked on for the past year and what’s coming up. Watch this space for the landing page in the next few weeks. It will be the centralized place for having following our journey.
We’re excited to see you in-person once again. You want to schedule some time with us while we are in your city or you are interested in sponsoring the road trip and getting your brand in front of our audience? Contact us
