Invest Heavily in Digital Transformation
The CFO’s role is being disrupted by digital, data risk, regulation and stakeholder scrutiny. CFOs who do not proactively define their role in response to these major forces could compromise their ability to shape strategy and drive the innovation necessary for sustainable growth. All of these shifts will have lingering effects on the role of the CFO. A role which has been steadily focusing less on financial stewardship, and more on guiding the company strategy in developing disruptive business models, and pitching investments in emerging technologies.

Having been deluged by a smorgasbord of "vendors" trying to get us to sponsor CISO events literally multiple times a week it was hard to cut through all the noise. C-Vision laid out an articulate plan for us to be much more targeted, presented a stronger ROI and on top have come through with the Results they Promised. They really have become an adjunct "team for hire" building trust with us all along the way. There is no second guessing on this relationship and consistently over-deliver. My kind of Partner.

I had the pleasure of joining the C-Vision International, Nordics CISO Council Roundtable with a wonderful group of cyber executives. We had a wonderful, insightful conversation and the whole experience was enjoyable. I made great new contacts and reconnected with existing contacts on really important topics that matter to CISO’s and all in cybersecurity. I’d highly recommend joining in any C-Vision event.

C-Vision has helped my company a great deal. They have trusted deep relationships that make the sales process a lot easier. Everyone wants to get in front of C-level execs today. C-Vision cuts through the noise to help build long lasting business relationships!
Senior Director of Sales - North America

C-Vision was really professional, responsive, listened and are very thoughtful in their approach. It showed from the information gathering stage, to the planning stage and then with execution. I call them a 'boutique' company - because they are very high touch and truly care about the customer and end result, and most importantly, the relationship building and next steps after the event. They do not overbook their calendar and it shows with their customer service. Our speakers (Senior Exec VP level) were impressed with the format, and who they brought to the table. We will be continuing to engage with them. I can't recommend them enough and with so many out there, it is hard to find the right fit!
