"I am interested in attending the Summit in 2009. I found a lot of value in the last summit and am now working with two vendors- Clickfox and VMware."

SVP & CIO

"A very impressive event, the whole thing was first class. Assembling senior leadership within the financial services sector, representing such a diverse cross-section of markets, is not an easy task. Kudos to your organization on such a successful event and my sincerest thanks for allowing me to be a part of it!"

VP Information Security

"Great forum for meeting other CIOs and validating hot topics in banking technology. Meetings were just the right length, and right to the point."

CIO

"I've already had follow up discussions with a couple of the vendors I met and I see promise for future business. The meetings were the perfect length of time and I learned a lot about some vendors I thought I knew. I was impressed by the event, it was very well organized and executed."

SVP & CIO

"The business partnership "speed dating" concept is great. I thought that the survey to target my time was valuable. The conference staff did a great job in orchestrating a valuable event."

CISO

"The most informative and thought gathering event I've been to- thanks to all my peers and the SBS staff for putting on a truly great summit"

VP
