The Tech Leaders Event in Lyon

An exclusive after-work event for decision-makers who are transforming their organizations

This event is intended for decision-makers and strategic leaders who drive innovation within their organizations: CTOs, CIOs, CISOs, executives, and leaders in Data & AI, Innovation, Digital Transformation, and Architecture.

In a deliberately intimate setting, participants will have the opportunity to interact with their peers, share their experiences, and learn how organizations are currently moving from experimentation to the implementation of AI.

The goal is simple: to foster meaningful exchanges among decision-makers facing the same technological challenges and to build lasting connections among stakeholders in the regional ecosystem.
