New York CIO Executive Summit 2026 at Hudson Yards

The New York CIO Community Executive Summit gathers chief information officers from leading organizations across the region for a single, focused day of peer-driven discussion. Hosted by the Gartner C-Level Communities (formerly Evanta), the program is built around the issues that CIOs say matter most right now: enterprise-scale AI deployment, CISO leadership, and the governance that keeps data integrity intact. The day mixes interactive sessions with private, invitation-style meetings, so attendees can move between open conversation and targeted problem-solving with peers at their level. Networking breaks are structured rather than incidental, making it easy to connect with counterparts from banking, insurance, technology and other data-heavy sectors. Because the format is intentionally small and role-restricted, the summit is designed for sitting CIOs and equivalent executives rather than vendors or junior staff. Registration is handled through the community calendar. If you are planning to attend from out of town, staying near the venue at Hudson Yards keeps travel time short and puts Midtown and the West Side within easy reach.
