Which Membership Type is Right for You?

CIO Circle

This category allows the Senior Leaders of an organization access to this exclusive group. Membership in the Technology Circles is restricted to non-vendors to preserve the peer character of the group. This category is for Senior IT Leaders that are not in any other category.

“The CIO Circle is a group of technology leaders with a diverse set of backgrounds representing a collection of local companies. I can’t overstate the peace of mind that comes from exchanging ideas and experiences with these leaders, knowing that I’m getting the benefit of their collective experiences.”
Steve BrunkerCIO
"The collective knowledge and expertise of the CIO Circle has been an invaluable resource in my work. The group has a strong culture of supportiveness where we learn from each other's experience in deploying specific technologies, providers and overall best practices. The programming is an efficient way to keep pace with the trends that will have a real effect on our businesses. Our region and organizations are far better off because of The Circuit & CIO Circle."
Chris HickokCIO at Home City Ice
"I think the Emerging Leaders group provides an excellent forum for future IT leaders to develop the necessary skills to lead a team and be a strategic partner to the business. In addition, it allows these individuals to build a network that they can leverage throughout their career. If you are an IT leader that is serious about building your people, I can't think of a reason you wouldn't want members of your team to participate."
Ryan Hale CIO at Lithko Contracting
