Gather, connect, learn and share real experiences

What is the Conversations Roadshow?
The Conversations Roadshow is a half-day gathering for senior technology leaders who want practical insight rather than surface-level talks.
While the format remains consistent at each stop — small-group roundtables and peer-led discussion — every event is shaped by its local context. Attendees, facilitators, and discussion topics differ from city to city, ensuring each gathering reflects the challenges and opportunities CTOs are experiencing in that region.
Each session is designed to create space for honest conversation, shared problem-solving, and connections that continue beyond the day.
Small group discussions
12-15 CTOs and senior tech leaders per table, creating space for real exchange.
Peer-led conversation
Interactive roundtables and deep-dive sessions built around shared challenges and experience.
No slides, real conversation
No long keynotes or sales pitches. Just open, honest dialogue and practical insight.
What to expect
- Connect in a focused, welcoming space
- Share learnings and ask tough questions
- Discuss real strategies without slides
- Leave with actionable insights
