Mid-Year GTM Checkpoint: What Enterprise Buyers are Prioritising in H2 2025
Thursday, 17 July, 2025 @11:00am
In the first six months of 2025, ADAPT has surveyed over 650 c-suite technology decision-makers across Australia, including CIOs, CISOs, Chief Data & Analytics Officers, and Heads of Digital from leading enterprise and government organisations.
Despite rising pressure, shifting budgets, and high expectations, most tech leaders report ongoing friction: misaligned data strategies, immature cyber capabilities, and transformation programs struggling to scale.
As we move into H2, now is the time to reset and align.
Join us for a mid-year strategic webinar drawing from ADAPT’s survey insights into where Australian tech leaders stand on data maturity, AI, modernisation, cybersecurity, and digital execution – capturing where the real investment momentum, execution gaps, and strategic priorities are heading as we enter the second half of the year.

What you’ll learn: 61% of CIOs plan to increase investment in application modernisation - yet funding constraints are forcing hard trade-offs Why 68% of CISOs are directing new budget toward third-party risk and GenAI-related threats What’s stalling AI execution despite growing investment Why data immaturity is hindering AI readiness with only 24% of CDAOs saying their data is ready to support AI use cases Where digital leaders face friction – from disconnected platforms to slow adoption – and the kind of support they now expect from vendors
