Migrating legacy systems to the cloud remains one of the toughest balancing acts in IT. Every choice affects stability, cost, and trust at once, and what starts as a modernisation effort quickly turns into a negotiation between ambition and reality. Suddenly budgets rise, dependencies appear late, and timelines tighten as old architectures collide with new expectations. In the end, success depends on sequencing, ownership, and aligning business priorities with infrastructure limits, and not only on technical readiness. Making it work requires more than a plan on paper. Knowing which systems genuinely belong in the cloud, which can wait, and which should stay put shapes the entire roadmap and defines its success. Each refactoring decision sets the level of future flexibility, but it also drives cost and risk. The trade-offs between speed, sustainability, and resilience only become clear once migration begins and pressure builds. Let’s discuss how to plan migrations that stay on track, manage hidden dependencies, and handle downtime with confidence. Let’s also discuss how governance, testing, and vendor coordination keep progress visible and credible. Are you in? A closed conversation for those who turn cloud migration from a disruption into a long-term advantage.

CIOs today are being judged less as technology leaders and more as portfolio managers. Every euro is under scrutiny. Boards and CFOs demand lower run costs, higher efficiency, and clear ROI from every digital initiative. Yet, they also expect CIOs to place bets on disruptive technologies that will keep the enterprise competitive in five years. This constant tension is redefining the role. In this session, we go beyond FinOps and cost reporting to tackle the strategic financial dilemmas CIOs face.

AI coding assistants entered development teams quietly, but their impact grows by the day. What started as autocomplete now shapes architecture decisions, documentation, and testing. And when productivity gains are visible, so are new risks: security blind spots, uneven quality, and the slow erosion of shared standards. Teams move faster, but not always in the same direction. The challenge has become integration rather than adoption. And new questions have risen: how do you blend automation into established practices without losing oversight? When is human review still essential, and what should the rules of collaboration between developer and machine look like? As AI tools learn from proprietary code, where do responsibility and accountability sit? Let’s talk about how to redefine those workflows, balancing creativity with control, and protecting code quality in a hybrid human-AI environment. A closed conversation on where AI accelerates progress, where it introduces new debt, and how development culture must evolve to stay credible.

Zero Trust sounds simple on paper: trust no one, verify everything. But once you start implementing it, the fun begins. Legacy systems, hybrid networks, and human habits don’t read the manual. The idea is solid; the execution, not so much.

World’s leading planet-protecting technology secured by Trend Micro's platform
Summit Carbon Solutions, a leading player in decarbonization, is building the world's largest carbon capture and storage network. Through partnerships with companies like Trend Micro, the company is leveraging cutting-edge technologies to accelerate the transition to clean energy.
Summit Carbon Solutions was founded in 2020 with the goal of decarbonizing the biofuel and agriculture industries via carbon capture and sequestration. In developing the largest carbon capture and storage project in the world, the company seeks to lower greenhouse gas emissions. This is achieved by connecting industrial facilities via strategic infrastructure. Over 15 million tons of carbon is collected each year and is stored safely and permanently in the Midwestern United States. To adapt quickly, CIO and CTO Jason Cradit is focused on working with strategic partners like Trend Micro.
CHALLENGES
Summit Carbon Solutions’ rapidly expanding employee base is both distributed and mobile, making endpoint security an ongoing challenge. Security for burgeoning IoT operations is crucial, as is compliance with government security mandates. As a startup that has successfully raised funding, Summit Carbon Solutions must continuously demonstrate that its security infrastructure is capable of fully protecting assets and data.
For the AWS workloads, Trend Micro helps us to protect our data to make sure we can certify where we keep our carbon.
WHY TREND
Through years of fruitful collaboration, Cradit has taken on his latest challenges knowing that Trend is a partner. “That feeling of togetherness and how we build and deploy according to need—it’s like we’re in this together. It’s a true partnership.”
Vision One is amazing. The ability to see and track a threat from potential to attack.
SOLUTION
“I know that as the company grows, as I add the next thing—such as containerized security options applications—Trend Micro is going to be there for me,” says Cradit.

Business benefits:
Digital Transformation is redefining the future of health care and health delivery. All stakeholders are convinced that these innovations will create value for patients, healthcare practitioners, hospitals, and governments along the patient pathway. The benefits are starting from prevention and awareness to diagnosis, treatment, short- and long-term follow-up, and ultimately survival. But how do you make sure that your working towards an architecturally sound, secure and interoperable health IT ecosystem for your hospital and avoid implementing a hodgepodge of spot solutions? How does your IT department work together with the other stakeholders, such as the doctors and other healthcare practitioners, Life Sciences companies, Tech companies, regulators and your internal governance and administrative bodies?
