Registration
There is no need to register your spouse separately. We encourage them to attend all evening sessions as your plus one at no additional cost. Daytime sessions are exclusive to CIO and CISO members, so a city guide for recommended daytime activities will be provided for your spouse.
Hotel and airfare are not included with Converge registration.
We recommend you book your travel plans as soon as possible to secure the best possible rate. For convenience and a preferred rate, a block of rooms is available to reserve at the Omni Frisco Hotel at the Star through July 8, 2024.
Your registration includes full access to Converge24, including but not limited to three program sessions, all meals, the National Finalist Dinner, the National ORBIE Awards, personalized experiences, and crafted conversations. Pre-Conference Events are included at no additional cost.
Agenda
While most conference events and sessions are listed on our conference agenda, you may experience a few delightful surprises throughout the conference.
Spouses are welcome at all evening events. Daytime sessions are exclusive to CIO and CISO members. Spouses will be provided with a city guide for recommendations of daytime activities.
Converge is designed to help you grow in your leadership development and facilitate connection. We recommend you use this time to unplug from day-to-day obligations and schedule any necessary meetings outside of session times. We don’t want you to miss out on anything!
