The 15th CTO Colloquium, Durham NC
The 15th CTO Colloquium
A two-day catalyst event for CTOs
The 15th CTO Colloquium brings together senior technical leaders for two days of thoughtful dialogue, practical insight, and peer-level connection centered around AI.
This colloquium is designed as a working forum, not a conference. You’ll engage in a series of AI focused talks, discussions, and a facilitated forum session that creates space to reflect, challenge assumptions, and learn directly from other CTOs navigating similar complexity.
Expect candid conversations, systems-level thinking, and time to step out of the day-to-day to reconnect with the why and how of technical leadership.
