Reinventing Business with Agentic AI

Join us for an intimate evening of conversation and cuisine with industry leaders about reinventing the way business works with agentic AI. As agentic AI begins to move from experimentation to enterprise adoption, it’s no longer about automation alone—it’s about transformation. With 82% of organizations planning to adopt AI agents within the next one to three years—for tasks ranging from email and code generation to insights and decision-making—the question is, what comes next? As AI agents evolve, enterprises must rethink how they design workflows, structure teams, and adapt decision-making processes to accommodate autonomous AI that learns, adapts, and acts in real-time. This discussion will explore how businesses can harness the power of agentic AI while maintaining control, from reimagining digital operations to enabling an AI-augmented workforce. Let’s explore the future of adaptive enterprises together—where human ingenuity and agentic AI combine to drive bold innovation.

Attended the C-Vision International CISO Dinner last night and to sum it up in one word, "Wow!" Incredibly well moderated discussion and investigation into different viewpoints. I appreciate the openness of all the attendees to share their unique experiences and perspectives. I learned a lot, had a ton of fun, and look forward to further events like this!

Recently updated my "event vendors I will NEVER work with again" list, DM me if you're interested in the names and stories. On the other hand, I want to recommend Nelson Soares and C-Vision International who are true partners to our success, and I really enjoy working with. Happy to also share the great list of vendors we liked, as there are many of them, and we've recently had the pleasure of joining wonderful events, which we immediately renewed.

The day was awesome and the evening exceeded my wildest expectations. I've never been to a dinner like that where a table with 12 CIOs/CISOs was focused exclusively on Netskope. Just fantastic.
Thank you for including me!
I look forward to the next time we have the opportunity to meet

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.
