In the twelve years in which we have been organizing CIOmove once a year and other formats such as CIOmove@Home several times a year, a large international community and thus a unique network has developed – with more than 400 CIOs and IT managers from large multinational companies, to which our partners and ambassadors also belong as integral elements.
- At the annual CIOmove, the community travels the world to gain new perspectives on the IT landscape and expand its network. CIOs, partners, ambassadors, and guests share experiences and discuss business strategies in-depth. You can find more information about CIOmove here.
- In addition to the annual event, CIOmove@Home gatherings are held throughout Germany, where companies explore IT strategies and current challenges. Past hosts include Volkswagen, Schwarz Group, BASF, Allianz, Otto, and Kuehne+Nagel.
- The CIOmove Network also includes events on current topics affecting the IT world. For example, on January 22, 2025, we will meet at our host Accenture in Munich for a deep dive into the ROI of Microsoft Copilot. Further information on this event can be found here.
