The CIO as Investor - CIONET Belgium Annual Event

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.

AI-Driven Development: Redesigning workflows, responsibilities, and trust in the age of automation

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 in Reality : Making segmentation, identity, and access work in complex environments

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. In the end, Zero Trust is less about technology and more about design, culture, and patience. And when identity becomes the new perimeter, segmentation turns political, and exceptions multiply until the model looks more like “some trust, most of the time.” It’s progress, but not quite the revolution everyone expected. So how do you make Zero Trust work in real environments full of dependencies, vendors, and legacy constraints? Is it even possible? How do you balance usability with control, and what metrics actually prove progress? Let’s unpack what it takes to move beyond PowerPoint strategy and get Zero Trust working across systems and people that weren’t built for it. A closed conversation for those who’ve learned that Zero Trust is less about zero and more about trust that’s earned, not assumed.

Move Intelligence, Not Data: Designing AI‑Ready Architectures in a World of Data Gravity

AI is becoming embedded in every workflow, every application, and every decision engine. But as data grows exponentially, IT estates become heavier. Moving data - across clouds, across regions, or even across environments - has become slow, expensive, and risky. Latency, sovereignty, egress fees, and unpredictable cloud bills make the old defaults unsustainable.

The Career Path of the Data Leader : From data projects to enterprise value: redefining what leadership means

The role of the data leader used to be clear: build platforms, deliver dashboards, report insights. But now data sits everywhere, in AI, in decisions, in strategy, and suddenly every conversation ends with “What does the data say?”. The responsibility has outgrown the job description. Today’s data leaders are asked to create impact, not just infrastructure. To manage privacy, quality, and trust while proving business value in quarterly cycles. It’s a balancing act between governance and growth, between enabling and controlling. And yet, the path upward often feels unclear. Does it lead to the CDO seat? Or is influence now spread across teams, not titles? So how do you grow from operational excellence to strategic impact? How do you shape culture while still delivering numbers? And what skills separate the next generation of data leaders from the last? Let’s explore how this role is evolving: from technical authority to business partner, from reporting to decision-making, from data management to data leadership. A closed conversation for those defining what data leadership should look like in 2026 and beyond.

Data Governance at Scale : Defining ownership, accountability, and operating models for trusted access

Every organisation wants to make data easier to access while keeping it consistent, secure, and compliant. That’s the goal. But then comes the challenge, an operational one rather than a conceptual one. It’s true, opening access speeds up decisions, but it multiplies duplication, privacy risks, and ownership confusion. Tightening governance restores order but kills agility. So the same questions keep coming back. Who owns what? How far can self-service go before chaos starts? How much central control is needed when every team wants autonomy? If you’ve asked yourself those, you’ve probably also wondered how to define the right operating model. How to roll it out across the organisation while facing the pushback that always follows. What it takes in cost, time, steps, and impact to make it work. You’re not the only one. So let’s talk about it. Let's talk about enforcing principles, delegating authority, and measuring trust in practice. What controls hold up? What break under scale? How to build confidence in data without creating bottlenecks? A closed conversation focused on what’s working, what isn’t, and where the balance lies.

AI for Security, Security for AI

This is the first event of CIONET’s Cyber Circle: a new three-event programme exclusively focusing on the most urgent, complex, and high-impact challenges in cybersecurity today.  This first event of the programme is entirely dedicated to AI's dual role in cybersecurity. To give CISOs clarity and direction, the session is structured around two distinct conversations: Part 1. AI for Security What AI Really Delivers Today — Beyond the Promises AI is marketed as the next revolution in cyber defense — from smarter detection to automated response and predictive analytics. But the reality is mixed: effectiveness varies widely, maturity is still uneven, and many promised capabilities remain aspirational. In this first part, we explore: Real vs hype in AI-driven cyber defense What mature CISOs are actually using today Where AI genuinely improves SOC performance — and where it falls short Hallucinations, false positives, and operational limits How attackers use AI to accelerate phishing, social engineering, and exploit development This is a grounded, experience-based look at what works, what doesn’t, and what is still wishful thinking. Part 2. Security for AI How to Protect AI Systems — New Risks, New Controls As organisations deploy AI models, they introduce entirely new attack surfaces. Securing AI requires capabilities that many cybersecurity teams are only beginning to develop. This second part focuses on: Attacks on AI itself: prompt injection, data poisoning, model extraction, adversarial inputs What leading CISOs are already doing to govern and secure AI applications What is working and failing in protecting AI systems in practice New skills, controls, and architectures required for safe, scalable AI adoption The organisational impact: oversight, risk management, and upcoming regulatory pressure This segment equips CISOs with the insight needed to secure AI responsibly and proactively.

The New IT Operating Model : Redefining roles, governance, and delivery for an AI-shaped enterprise

IT used to own technology. Now, every function does. Marketing builds apps, finance runs analytics, and operations automates workflows on its own. The boundaries that once defined IT have blurred, yet accountability hasn’t moved. The result? Shared ownership without shared governance, rising cost without clear control, and a CIO role that’s harder to define every year. The question of how to align IT with the business is long gone. They are already entangled, well, most of the time, or at least sometime. Jokes aside, a new challenge has emerged: designing an operating model that makes that entanglement productive rather than chaotic. One that manages shadow IT without killing initiative, distributes ownership without losing control, and scales AI and automation without fragmenting accountability. So how do you rebuild roles, budgets, and governance for a world where everyone is a tech player? How do you balance central coordination with local speed? And what new forms of leadership emerge when IT becomes the connective tissue rather than the command centre? Let’s explore how organisations are redesigning the operating model around outcomes, influence, and shared responsibility. A closed conversation on what modern IT leadership looks like when power, data, and technology are everywhere.

Operating Model Driven Design: Shaping systems around how the organisation actually works

Most architectures start with technology choices, then reality steps in. And when operating models evolve, structures shift, and suddenly systems no longer fit the way people work. So processes have to stretch to accommodate tools instead of the other way around. This is where integration becomes repair, not design, and what was once well aligned slowly turns into a patchwork of exceptions and workarounds. It becomes clearer that when technology and operating models drift apart, efficiency collapses. Change takes longer, ownership gets blurred, and costs rise quietly in the background, leading to architecture becoming a mirror of yesterday’s organisation, not today’s. Hence, is it possible for systems to follow the rhythm of the business, not fight it? How do you translate an operating model into design principles that guide decisions in real time? How do you keep alignment when business and systems evolve at different speeds? And how do you define boundaries that support autonomy without breaking cohesion? Let’s explore that. Let’s explore how to make architecture a living reflection of structure, culture, and decision-making. A closed conversation on designing systems that evolve with the business instead of holding it back.

Defending for Continuity: Aligning direct threats with a resilient roadmap

The CISO agenda for 2026 demands a shift from a reactive, purely compliant security model to a proactive, business-aligned strategy of digital resilience. But what does a "resilient security posture that works" actually look like in a complex, operational enterprise? This breakout session moves beyond high-level strategy to explore the crucial intersection of technology, operational control, and regulatory mandate.

AI is reshaping the attack surface: is the FSI sector really in control?

L’adozione dell’Intelligenza Artificiale nel settore finanziario sta accelerando rapidamente. Dalla Generative AI agli agenti sempre più autonomi, l’AI sta diventando parte integrante dei processi core di banche e assicurazioni, influenzando decisioni, operatività e modelli di business. Questa evoluzione, però, sta anche ridisegnando in profondità la superficie d’attacco. Mentre i dipartimenti business corrono, la sicurezza fatica a tenere il passo: l’83% delle aziende utilizza attivamente l’AI, ma solo il 13% ha una visibilità reale su come questa interagisce con i dati aziendali*. Oggi il rischio non è più legato esclusivamente ai modelli di AI, ma ai dati che l’AI utilizza, combina e rende accessibili. Senza una solida data governance e una piena tracciabilità, l’innovazione rischia di trasformarsi rapidamente in esposizione. Questa roundtable nasce per creare un confronto di alto livello, aperto e concreto tra CIO, CISO e Chief Data Officer del settore FSI, con l’obiettivo di capire come passare da una postura reattiva a una governance proattiva nell’era dell’AI, e in particolare, dell’AI agentica.

The Composable Enterprise: Engineered with AI

From modular business design to AI-driven pipelines, architectures, and operationsA composable enterprise is built on modular processes, API-driven ecosystems, low-code platforms, and cloud-native services. It promises speed and adaptability by allowing organisations to reconfigure their capabilities as conditions change. However, modular design alone does not guarantee resilience; the way these systems are engineered and operated is just as important.This is where AI is beginning to make a difference. Beyond generating snippets of code, AI is already influencing how entire systems are developed and run: accelerating CI/CD pipelines, improving test coverage, optimising Infrastructure-as-Code, sharpening observability, and even shaping architectural decisions. These changes directly affect how quickly new business components can be deployed, connected, and retired.In this session, we will examine how CIOs can bring these two movements together:Composable design is the framework for flexibility and modularity.AI-augmented engineering is the force that delivers the speed, quality, and intelligence needed to sustain it.The pitfalls of treating them in isolation: composability that collapses under slow engineering cycles, or AI that only adds complexity without a modular structure.The discussion goes beyond concepts to practical implications: how to architect organisations that can be recomposed at speed, without losing control or reliability. The outcome is an enterprise that is not only modular in design but also engineered to adapt continuously under real-world conditions.

The Third-Party Risk Reckoning: How far can you trust your vendors?

Tomato! Tomato! Tomato! Get your tomato now! Every vendor sells security. And every company depends on vendors, partners, and suppliers. The more digital the business becomes, the longer that list grows, and so does the attack surface. One weak link, and there is always one, or one missed update, and trust collapses faster than any firewall can react. What used to be a procurement checklist has become a full-time discipline. Questionnaires, audits, and endless documentation prove that everyone’s “compliant,” yet incidents keep happening. So it’s clear: the issue isn’t lack of policy, or maybe a bit, but mostly lack of visibility. Beyond a certain point, even the most secure organisation is only as safe as its least prepared partner (or an employee who hadn’t had their morning coffee). So how far can you trust your vendors? How do you check what you can’t control? And when does assurance become theatre instead of protection? Does it come at a different cost? Let’s exchange what works and what fails in third-party risk management: live monitoring, shared responsibility models, contractual levers, and the reality of building trust in a chain you don’t own. A closed conversation for those redefining what partnership means when risk is shared but accountability isn’t.

Killing Zombie Projects: Knowing when to stop, restart, or quietly let go

Every organisation has them, projects that keep running long after their purpose has faded. No one remembers who asked for them, but shutting them down feels riskier than keeping them alive. And eventually, people stay assigned, budgets stay allocated, and energy drains into work that no longer matters. Inertia at its finest. Ending a project is rarely a technical decision. It’s emotional, political, and often tied to past promises or personal reputation. The longer something runs, the harder it becomes to admit it’s time to stop. Yet clearing that backlog of half-dead initiatives is often the only way to make room for new ones. So how do you decide when to pull the plug? What signals show that value is gone, and who gets to say so? How can governance encourage honest calls without punishing those who make them? Let’s discuss how to end gracefully, refocus teams, and turn closure into confidence rather than blame. Bullet in the head? Is that how you kill a zombie, or was it a silver bullet in the heart? A closed conversation on how to make progress by learning to stop.

Measuring Value in AI Initiatives: Defining ROI, accountability, and measurable outcomes in complex environments

AI projects continue to multiply, but proving their value remains difficult. Most organisations can track activity, not impact. Dashboards count pilots and models, yet few translate to measurable business outcomes. The result is familiar: success stories without clarity on what they actually delivered. The real issue is measurement. Traditional ROI metrics fail when AI changes decisions more than results. Financial indicators miss the operational gains, while qualitative benefits often sound too vague to defend. Without clear evidence, budgets come under scrutiny and confidence erodes. This session focuses on how to connect AI work with business outcomes through structured metrics, governance, and accountability. We’ll explore how value tracking evolves from experimentation to scale, which indicators earn trust at board level, and where measurement stops being meaningful. A closed exchange for comparing methods, tools, and lessons learned in defining, proving, and sustaining AI impact.

Composability in Practice: Building modular systems that stay coherent as they grow

Composability sounds elegant in theory: small, independent parts that come together to form something greater, but in practice, it’s messy. What happens when modules overlap, APIs evolve differently across domains, and governance struggles to keep pace? What was meant to simplify architecture sometimes ends up multiplying it. As systems grow, integration points become dependencies, and flexibility turns into fragility. A simple change in one component ripples through others, making the dream of “plug and play” harder to sustain. Still, the goal remains the same: adaptability without chaos. So how do you achieve it without slowing everything down? How do you design boundaries that allow reuse but prevent entanglement? How do you define ownership when many teams touch the same shared components? And how can standards evolve without becoming a constraint? Let’s explore how composability works when theory meets reality, and how teams preserve coherence while systems keep expanding. A closed conversation on modular design that enables agility instead of just promising it.

Taming the SaaS Sprawl: Tracking spend, ownership, and usage before it slips out of control

SaaS gave business units freedom: quick onboarding, no infrastructure, and instant results. But over time, that freedom turned into fragmentation. Each team now buys, renews, and configures its own stack. HR has one platform, finance has another, and marketing probably has ten. The invoices keep coming, usage keeps dropping, and no one is sure who’s accountable for what. Traditional cost management doesn’t apply here. There’s no central contract, no single owner, and no real visibility. What used to be procurement now feels like detective work. Redundant tools, overlapping licences, and hidden integrations make the picture blurrier every month. By the time finance steps in, renewals are already done and budgets already gone. So how do you regain control without killing autonomy? How can IT, procurement, and business functions share visibility and accountability? And what governance keeps flexibility alive without letting costs spiral? Let’s talk about the new discipline behind SaaS management: mapping ownership, connecting data from finance to usage, and building renewal intelligence that actually prevents waste. A closed conversation for those turning SaaS chaos into structure before it turns into another budget crisis.

CIOFEST INTERNATIONAL 2026: Leadership in the Agentic Era

Belgium 23-4-26 CIONET Community Event Country Members Physical & Virtual english

CIOFEST BELGIUM: Leadership in the Agentic Era

AI is no longer confined to supporting human tasks. We are entering the agentic era, where autonomous systems act on behalf of people and organisations. These agents can gather information, make decisions, negotiate terms, and even complete transactions. The implications extend well beyond technology; they touch the very foundations of business models, governance, and leadership. For CIOs and their peers, the rise of “machine customers” and autonomous partners poses new questions: Market impact: How do you compete and create value when some customers and suppliers are machines? Governance: What trust, compliance, and accountability structures are needed when AI acts independently in financial, procurement, or customer-facing processes? Leadership: How should CIOs guide their organisations in redefining roles, responsibilities, and decision-making when agents take over parts of the value chain?Business strategy: What opportunities emerge for new revenue models, platforms, and ecosystems shaped by autonomous interaction? This session shifts the focus from the mechanics of AI agents to the decisions that will shape leadership in the next decade. It is a call for CIOs to prepare for a future where relationships, markets, and strategies are no longer limited to human-to-human interactions, but also extend to human-to-machine and machine-to-machine interactions.

Why many transformations fail is not about technology, but about people and culture. Female leaders often excel in stakeholder alignment, empathy, and habit change; qualities that can make the difference between rollout and real adoption.So, where do those who drive digital transformation, often women, belong?

Product-Centric IT 2.0: Blending product and project thinking

Everyone says they’ve gone product-centric. In reality, most organisations live in a hybrid world where projects, products, and platforms overlap. Teams manage releases while still chasing deadlines, and governance still thinks in milestones rather than outcomes. The shift is underway, but the mindset hasn’t caught up. At scale, product thinking creates new tensions. What happens when one product depends on another? Who owns shared components, and how do you coordinate when priorities clash? And how do you measure success when delivery and value creation no longer happen on the same timeline? Let’s explore how organisations are blending product and project models, keeping alignment while giving teams autonomy. Let’s discuss how to define ownership, fund cross-functional work, and handle dependencies that never fit neatly into one backlog. A closed conversation on what it takes to make product-centric IT work in practice, not just in slides.

AI vs AI in Cybersecurity: When defenders and attackers both use AI

The game has changed, clearly. Attackers have AI, defenders have AI, and both sides are learning faster than anyone expected, or maybe the attackers are just a bit faster. What used to take hours now happens in seconds, and detection windows close before alerts even appear. It’s adaptation beyond automation, and no one gets to sit still. But every promise of AI-driven defence comes with a price. The tools are expensive to train, maintain, and monitor. Mistakes cost more too. False positives drain teams, model drift hides real threats, and poisoned data turns protection into confusion. So now it’s not only about defending networks, it’s about defending the defenders themselves, from fatigue, blind trust, and automation gone wrong. So how do you keep visibility when both sides use the same weapons? How do you detect intent when patterns look human but aren’t? How do you justify cost when failure still happens, just faster? Let’s explore what happens when algorithms face each other on both sides of the firewall, and what new defences emerge when speed alone is no longer enough. A closed conversation about a future where cybersecurity becomes an AI vs AI battle, and humans still have to win.

Managing Vendor Lock-In: Balancing dependence, cost, and control in strategic partnerships

Every vendor swears their platform is open, flexible, and built for freedom. Then comes the renewal date. The price goes up, migration looks painful, and “strategic partnership” starts to feel more like dependency. Most organisations don’t get trapped overnight, they walk into it one contract at a time. Broadcom, anyone? We know lock-in isn’t only technical, it’s commercial, architectural, and even cultural. Once tools shape how teams work, switching becomes not only costly but politically impossible. So how do you manage dependency without losing leverage? What do you do when moving away costs more than staying? How do you negotiate from a position of weakness? And what governance models help prevent lock-in before it happens? Let’s share how to keep options open, make vendors compete without breaking partnerships, and find leverage even when it seems there’s none left. A closed conversation for those who’ve learned that freedom in IT is rarely free.

The Career Path of the Cloud Engineer: From system builder to strategic enabler of digital scale

The cloud engineer’s world keeps expanding. It started with provisioning and automation, but now it touches everything: resilience, security, cost, and even business continuity. What used to be a back-end function has become one of the most visible roles in digital operations. Yet with that visibility comes pressure: constant evolution, constant firefighting, and very little time to step back and ask, “Where is this career actually going?” Tools evolve faster than skills can stabilise. Every certification promises relevance, every vendor claims leadership, and every organisation defines “cloud” differently. Between platform specialisation and architecture oversight, the lines blur quickly. The challenge is no longer learning the tools, it’s deciding which skills will still matter once the automation matures. So how do you grow from technical expert to strategic partner? How do you build credibility outside the console: in architecture, governance, and cost optimisation? And what does leadership look like when cloud becomes less about configuration and more about orchestration? Let’s discuss how the best engineers are shaping their next move: towards influence, design, and strategic value. A closed conversation for those defining what it means to engineer the cloud, not just run it.

Security by Design

How attackers and defenders are deploying autonomous systems AI is transforming the pace of cyber conflict. Attackers are experimenting with agents that can craft phishing emails at scale, automatically escalate privileges, and adapt malware in real-time. Defenders are countering with AI that hunts anomalies, models behaviour, and reacts faster than human teams ever could. This session will look at the operational front line: Where adversarial AI is already being used in the wild. What’s working - and failing - in AI-driven defence. The capabilities CISOs must build now to avoid being outpaced by machine-speed attackers. The focus: what it takes to survive when the battle shifts from human-to-human to AI-to-AI.

The Self-Healing Infrastructure: Designing automation that prevents failure without creating blind spots

Automation was supposed to make infrastructure predictable. Systems would detect anomalies, resolve issues, and learn from every incident. And for a while, it worked: fewer tickets, faster recovery, better uptime. Until something broke silently, and no one noticed. The system had learned how to fix itself, but not how to explain what it did. That’s the new paradox of modern operations: The more autonomous your infrastructure becomes, the less visible it is. And when reliability depends on AI-driven logic, trust becomes the main failure point. Who monitors the machine that monitors everything else? At what moment does “self-healing” turn into “self-hiding”? So how do you build automation that keeps humans in the loop without slowing response? How do you set the right limits before systems act faster than people can intervene? And what skills do operations teams need when they’re managing learning, not just code? Let’s talk about what’s really changing in infrastructure operations: new accountability, new transparency, and the boundary between automation and control. A closed conversation for those designing systems that recover gracefully and stay explainable when they do.

From Dashboards to Decisions: Restoring alignment, ownership, and confidence in enterprise reporting

Data availability keeps growing, but decision-making often feels slower. Every function builds its own dashboards, metrics multiply, and reports begin to contradict each other. What was meant to improve transparency now creates confusion. The problem is not access to data but alignment on interpretation. When information becomes noise, confidence in reporting collapses. People hesitate to act, functions challenge each other’s numbers, and trust in analytics erodes. The challenge lies in restoring clarity: deciding which metrics matter, who owns them, and how reporting connects back to action. Let’s discuss how to simplify information flows, define consistent metrics, and reconnect dashboards with decision-making. How ownership, cadence, and shared understanding bring alignment back. A closed conversation on rebuilding confidence in data, where clarity replaces overload and information once again supports action.

AI Governance at Scale: Defining boundaries, ownership, and accountability for AI at scale

AI started small: a few pilots, some dashboards, a couple of chatbots. But then it spread, quickly. Now every department wants a model, every vendor adds “AI-powered” to their pitch, and every regulator is asking about risk and transparency. Governance suddenly went from a nice idea to a full-time job. Scaling governance is harder than launching AI. Policies look great on slides, but in practice, ownership blurs and enforcement stalls. Central control slows things down, while local freedom invites risk. Everyone agrees AI should be safe and ethical, but no one agrees on who signs off when something goes wrong, all leading to AIs living as permanent PoCs. So how do you scale oversight without creating bureaucracy? How do you distribute responsibility between IT, business, and compliance? And what controls actually hold up when AI keeps changing after deployment? Let’s explore how organisations make governance part of daily operations, not an afterthought. A closed conversation for those trying to keep AI credible, compliant, and under control while it spreads across the enterprise.

Building the Event-Driven Enterprise: Managing flow, context, and control in event-driven systems

Becoming event-driven sounds like the logical next step: real-time visibility, faster response, tighter integration. The promise is appealing, no? But turning that vision into reality is another story. Where do you start, with technology, operating model, or mindset? Many soon discover that event-driven design reshapes everything. Data ownership becomes decentralised, monitoring grows complex, and governance feels like chasing a moving target. Scaling up amplifies both the benefits and, if poorly governed, the costs as well. The question then becomes: what is the return on all that investment? Does the model actually reduce cost over time, or simply move it elsewhere? And when does ROI start showing, during scaling or only once operations stabilise? The goal remains clear: systems that react faster, stay reliable, and create measurable value at speed. But the path there is not. Let’s explore what it means to build event-driven architectures, what challenges surface at scale, and what financial outcomes they truly achieve. A closed conversation for those aiming to prove that responsiveness can also be sustainable.

Summerfest: From Story to Habit

How to align people, shift routines, and prove value Technology transformations often fail not because the tools don’t work, but because people don’t change their work habits. Boards want proof of value, executives want business outcomes, IT wants clarity, and employees want ease. Between these expectations, the CIO’s role is no longer just to deliver platforms; it is to tell the story that motivates people and turn that story into daily habits. This session will explore: The narrative: how to craft a simple, repeatable story that explains the “why” behind change for every stakeholder. From story to routine: practical ways to embed new behaviours through manager rituals, team incentives, and visible leadership. Reskilling and new expectations: preparing teams for evolving roles, from cross-department collaboration to AI-enhanced workflows. Measuring what matters: showing progress in speed, quality, and resilience — not just in licences bought or trainings completed. The aim is to equip CIOs with a leadership toolkit: a story that unites, habits that endure, and proof that convinces even the toughest boardroom.
