The CIO50 Middle East Awards- new sponsors announced

Hi voornaam,

On 24 February 2021, the inaugural CIO50 Middle East Awards will take place with the virtual IDC Middle East CIO Summit 2021—the largest gathering of CIOs and IT leaders in the region.

CIO is proud to recognise the top 50 senior technology executives driving innovation, strengthening resiliency, and demonstrating leadership by influencing rapid change in the region.

The role of technology leaders—whether CIO, CTO, CSO, or CDO—continues to change at pace, driven by the emergence of new technologies and business models. The CIO50 will capture this change through highlighting the innovative work of individuals and organisations across the region.

We are now proud to announce that these awards will be supported by three new sponsors.
