Technology Executive Dinner | Atlanta, GA

Building the Resilient Enterprise: Aligning Technology, Risk, and Transformation
Thursday, September 10th | 6:00 PM ET
 

Cyber risk doesn't wait for a convenient budget cycle, and neither does organizational resilience.

Stoddard Manikin, Vice President and Chief Information Security Officer at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, brings more than 25 years of experience in information technology, cybersecurity, and privacy to this exclusive conversation. Before leading security for one of the largest pediatric clinical care health systems in the country, Manikin built and ran consulting practices at FishNet Security (formerly Logic Trends), overseeing the southeast region's identity and access management practice. He began his security career at Ernst & Young, leading the southeast area security services team as a Senior Manager.

Manikin will lead a session on Building the Resilient Enterprise: Aligning Technology, Risk, and Transformation, covering:

  • How technology leaders can embed risk considerations into enterprise strategy without slowing innovation or modernization
  • The role of governance, identity, and cross-functional collaboration in creating a more resilient, adaptable organization
  • Practical lessons for managing complexity, regulatory expectations, and organizational change while advancing long-term business priorities

This is executive dialogue, not a lecture. TechTalk Summits' Technology Executive Dinners are the #1 short-format tech event for senior leaders — an intimate setting designed for candid discussion, high-value networking, and premium dining with peers who face the same decisions you do.

Register now for this Technology Executive Summit to elevate your career and network with the brightest minds in the industry.
