Kerry reflects on attending Edge events as a source of relevant content, peer connection, and more meaningful vendor conversations.
1:34 Kerry Holling Interim CIO University of Sydney

Across multiple CIO Edge events, the University of Sydney has found ongoing value in ADAPT’s ability to bring together compelling content, familiar peers, and productive vendor conversations in one place.

For Interim CIO Kerry Holling, the themed focus on AI and operational models was especially relevant to current priorities, while the event also created a rare opportunity to reconnect with fellow CIOs and explore adjacent ideas with vendors outside the usual day to day discussions.

What makes the experience worthwhile is the practical payoff: one strong idea from the day can justify the time away from the office.

"I’ve been a CIO for quite a while. I know lots of people and many of them are here, so often it’s the only opportunity I get to catch up with some of these fellow travellers. "
