Budget Adventures in the Age of AI
Reallocating IT Budgets in the Age of New Technology
IT budget reallocation in the age of new technology is one of the most consequential decisions for IT Managers and their organizations. IT managers who lean in — who develop strategic, financial, and leadership skills to navigate it well — are positioning themselves at the center of their organization's future.
New technology is transforming every corner of the enterprise, forcing technology and business leaders to rethink how they plan, allocate, and optimize their IT investments. In this new reality, IT budget strategy is no longer a back-office finance exercise — it is a core business and career imperative.
This SIM discussion explores:
How are you redefining budget priorities in this age of rapid technological change.
How IT budget reallocation can impact your career
How to fund agility, scalability, and emerging technology — What are Best Practices for reallocation?
Examples of a strong ROI from reallocation — and where it has not been achieved
Moderated by Joe Santangelo of CastleHill Risk, this session features a panel of IT leaders:
Alessandro Petroni - Head of Quality Product and Data Engineering
Alex Golbin - A senior financial services executive with over two decades of experience leading enterprise risk and regulatory remediation.
Andrew Heighington - Global Director of Cyber Governance, Risk, and Compliance
Augusta Sanfilippo - A senior IT executive with 30 years of Investment Banking
But this session is more than just a panel discussion.
As part of the program, attendees will be invited to participate in several exercises including:
My biggest IT budget challenges
Where is new technology forcing budget shifts
"Where am I Now?" How has IT budget reallocation impacted me
Approaches for reallocating in a world that moves faster than budget cycles
The goal of this session is to leave with a clear framework for reallocating your IT budget, in light of new technology priorities, and the confidence to make the case internally.
Join us for an informative and lively session designed to harness the collective wisdom of the room to build a clearer picture of how you and your peers are navigating IT budget reallocation — and what's actually working for you and for your organization.
