Seahawks CIO Summit

Digital transformation is driving today’s mobile-centric world, heightening expectations about how technology should be supported at work, schools, home and even hospitals. The same expectations have now extended to fans at sports venues and even to coaches, players, and sideline physicians.

This momentous change in the way we engage through technology is contingent upon pervasive connectivity and increased adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT). But as our “always-on” world continues to evolve, it’s not just about delivering connectivity to ‘things’; it’s about collecting and accessing data that ultimately delivers an experience.

Join hosts Seattle Seahawks and Extreme Networks and fellow CIOs, CMOs, and industry leaders as we explore how organizations can optimize connectivity and analyze data to deliver the best experiences in classrooms, hospitals, and offices as well as sporting venues.
