IT Security Summit Advisory Board
A High-level Network of IT, Tech, and Digital leaders
What is the role of the IDC Advisory Board?
For the IT Security Summit, IDC France relies on an Advisory Board made up of CISOs, IT leaders, and recognized cybersecurity experts. This group co-creates a program that directly addresses the priorities of IT and security teams and reflects the most pressing challenges in the market.
Leveraging their hands-on experience, Advisory Board members help shape an event designed by and for IT and cybersecurity decision-makers, with conferences and discussions focused on the key challenges: cybersecurity innovation, system resilience, AI-driven threat detection, operational efficiency, and governance.
The Value for You
Joining the Advisory Board means entering an exclusive circle of IT leaders and connecting with influential decision-makers in a collaborative, welcoming environment. Participation allows you to shape event themes, showcase your expertise, and enhance your visibility and recognition among peers, both during the conferences and across IDC’s digital platforms.
What You Bring
As a member, you actively contribute to editorial planning, share practical insights, and help develop tangible content such as roundtables, interviews, and interactive sessions, while promoting IDC France initiatives within your professional network.
