| 9:15 am - 10:15 am | On-Demand Everything: IT Leadership in the Age of the Connected Consumer Dick Daniels, EVP & CIO , Kaiser Permanente Gone are the days when technology delivered innovation and waited for businesses or consumers to catch up. Today's digitally connected consumers are taking the lead in driving business transformation across most industries, including health care. "We have crossed a threshold where 52 percent of all our encounters with members and patients are digital," says CIO Dick Daniels of $65 billion Kaiser Permanente. That shift means serious challenges for enterprise IT in both anticipating and responding to the demands of a consumer ecosystem built around "on-demand everything," he adds. In this forward-looking opening keynote, Dick will provide examples from the digital leading edge of patient care as he describes how Kaiser Permanente is rising to the challenge of a continuously connected membership base. "No matter what industry you are in, we are all on the same path." |

| 10:45 am - 11:45 am | CIO Panel: The Secret Sauce of Enterprise Innovation Christopher Bailey, Director of Innovation & Architecture, Matson Navigation Company Stephen Comstock, CIO, CBSInteractive Tom Cullen, VP & CIO, Driscoll's, Inc. Moderator: Maryfran Johnson, Editor in Chief, CIO Events Moderator: Brendan McGowan, Global Media Bureau & Client Research Manager, CIO Executive Council Innovation is a primary business goal for nearly every organization, yet what the term really means for the IT organization is often elusive and indefinable. The majority of IT leaders (56%) taking part in our CIO Executive Council's 2017 IT Innovation Report believe there is no fixed definition for innovation, leaving it open for all sorts of interpretation. As a result, IT leaders must approach innovation with a variety of tactics that take culture, technology constraints and business objectives into account. In this lively session, Bay Area CIOs will offer an inside look at how and where they focus their investments, strategies and behaviors to produce the most innovative results for their enterprises.

Led by Chief Innovation Officer of Global IT Alan Boehme, the program selects 10 startups each year to take part in this opportunity to leverage Coke’s marketing expertise while introducing new consumer technologies into the $42 billion beverage behemoth. Those first three classes produced 68 pilot programs, 15 license agreements and four global license agreements, Alan notes. “Now the question is: How do we scale this faster?” In this candid account of the challenges large enterprises encounter in absorbing leading-edge technologies, Alan will talk how he’s putting a more formalized governance program in place, expanding it to support pilot programs with Coke’s brand partners (such as Turner Broadcasting and Mercedes Benz), and keeping the innovation engine running smoothly. |

| 3:15 pm - 4:15 pm | Smart Moves in Cybersecurity: A CIO-CSO Panel on Setting Priorities, Spending Wisely and Engaging the Board Bernie Cowens, VP & CSO, Pacific Gas and Electric Company Chris Forbes, VP and CISO, Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco Aaron Gette, CIO, The Bay Club Company Michael Mathias, SVP & CIO, Blue Shield of California Moderator: Bob Bragdon, Publisher, CSO When it comes to escalating cybersecurity threats, CIOs and Chief Security Officers are on the front lines in dealing with the IT infrastructure and data management challenges of today's enterprises. But CEOs and boards of directors are just as involved now as the digital business ecosystem grows and corporate risks multiply. "Data breaches don't just hit stock prices and company reputations anymore," says CSO's Publisher Bob Bragdon. "The hidden costs are in the productivity losses afterwards -- dealing with legal and regulatory issues." In this practical exchange of ideas between CIOs and CSOs, our panelists will share their expertise on everything from senior-level executive engagement and business risk evaluation to the shifting priorities for security spending. They'll also talk about the new risks coming from Internet of Things (IoT) and mobile technologies, flattening security budgets and increasing amounts of sensitive data stored with cloud providers. |
