ParadigmShift | October 1-3
With limitation comes opportunity. The opportunity for a much-needed pause to reevaluate your organizational goals. The chance to reshape your business and technology strategies, and to align your investments accordingly. The space to examine your risk appetite, technical debt and mindsets; reprioritizing your portfolio to turn challenges into triumphs.
At ParadigmShift 2023, you’ll hear from industry-leading experts, who will challenge you to stop chasing hyped trends, and, instead, cultivate robust and effective product, data and engineering foundations to deliver value.
An immersive, invite-only event for courageous leaders, ParadigmShift connects business and tech executives with thought-provoking global speakers to discover, discuss, and inspire new ways of thinking about the future.
