Info-Tech LIVE 2026 Draws Thousands of CIOs to Las Vegas to Tackle AI Execution and Enterprise Value

Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Las Vegas drew thousands of CIOs to the Bellagio from June 9–11 to examine how agentic AI is reshaping enterprise tech, security, data, operating models, and IT leadership. The event, themed Agentic IT: From Hype to Value, featured keynotes, workshops, a record software expo, roundtables, and peer-led sessions focused on governance, accountability, and scalable execution. Attendees were reminded that AI value depends on disciplined governance and robust data foundations to scale. New research presented at the conference showed 91% of IT leaders are bullish on AI, 96% expect budget increases, but only 42% report cross-department AI adoption with measurable impact, and 50% have board-approved AI strategies. Gord Harrison called for clear ownership and deliberate investment to realize AI value.
