Membership in the Roundtable on Digital Strategies delivers an ongoing series of business dialogues at which CIOs and top-level executives of American and European corporations share new insight into the enabling role of information technology in meeting current business challenges. In focused discussions that cut across organizations and industries, Roundtable participants from noncompeting member corporations examine meaningful business issues they have in common. They come away from the day-long experience with new ideas and new approaches to specific challenges—the kind of creative assessment that arises only from diverse perspectives. More ›
