Welcome to
ITWeb Brainstorm CIO Banquet 2024!
Juggler or plate-spinner? The CIO is not a circus act entertainer, but they need to keep eyes on many different things at the same time and apply the right amount of action to ensure nothing gets dropped.
Mandated to align technology and strategies, the CIO must juggle major issues, such as managing digital transformation, defining and driving an AI strategy, aligning data privacy and cyber security, and cost optimisation, especially with the tricky shift to the cloud, as well as handle everyday ongoing issues – like addressing skills shortages, working with the business, prioritising IT investments and resource allocation and overseeing development output.
Undoubtedly, the CIO is under constant pressure, to maintain the status quo and keep the lights on, to apply technology to meet the business’ innovation needs, and to stay at the forefront of what’s happening in the world of technology.
The ITWeb Brainstorm CIO Banquet will be the place where you will be among the first to hear the results of the 2024 ITWeb Brainstorm CIO Survey. Here, we’ll provide a clear picture of which are the most pressing challenges South Africa’s CIOs are facing, how they are dealing with them and where they are prioritising in the current economic climate.
With this being the 10th Anniversary celebration, the ITWeb Brainstorm CIO Banquet has become a staple of the South African CIO’s annual calendar. The event mixes delicious food, great entertainment and excellent industry networking opportunities with unique insights into the priorities of the country's top executives who are leading the charge into digital transformation. Make sure you don’t miss out.

CIO Survey 2023
The ITWeb Brainstorm CIO Survey, run in partnership with MTN Business, is now in its 15th year.
The survey captures input from CIOs, or equivalent C-level execs, and results in an exclusive research report that provides unique insights into technology strategies of SA's top private and public sector organisations.
The comparative data from previous years enables ITWeb Brainstorm to track shifting priorities and investment trends and allows for deep vertical sector analyses.
The key findings of the 2024/2025 survey will be revealed at the annual ITWeb Brainstorm CIO Banquet, which will take place at The Polo Room, Inanda Club on Thursday, 17 October 2024.
The full research report will be published on ITWeb and Brainstorm online in early 2025. The report is available free of charge to all valid survey respondents.

Venue
The Polo Room
The Inanda Club was founded in 1934 with the purpose of providing a home for equestrian sports. The club was located in, what was then, the countryside north of Rosebank and it is doubtful that the founders imagined that the area would become the commercial CBD of Africa.
Address
Forrest Rd & 6th Ave
