Full organiser description

Join two seasoned CISOs for an open, no‑nonsense conversation about how they really evaluate early‑stage solutions. This is your chance to pick their brains on what earns trust, what raises concerns, and what makes an enterprise lean in or walk away. They’ll share real challenges and stories from the field, giving founders a clearer view of how corporate security teams think and buy. If you’re building for the corporate market, this is a chance to hear directly from the people who sit on the other side of the table. Target: This workshop is designed for early‑stage and scaling startup founders, CTOs, CPOs and technical leaders building cybersecurity, identity, authentication, infrastructure or enterprise SaaS solutions. Takeaways: You’ll walk away with clearer expectations, fewer blind spots, and a better sense of how to position your startup as a partner CISOs want to work with from the very first conversation. Access: This session requires pre-registration via this link. Login, search for the session, and click apply.
