Helping senior IT leaders grow through community and events
TechElevate is a peer-driven space to build the skills, confidence, and connections for your next leadership move.
The pace and complexity of technology leadership are evolving faster than ever - and with that comes new expectations. It’s no longer enough to simply deliver IT services or manage technical teams; today’s tech leaders must also navigate business strategy, financial stewardship, stakeholder influence, innovation and cultural leadership.
That's where TechElevate comes in.
TechElevate events are designed for senior IT managers, aspiring CIOs, and those ready to elevate from technical management into true business leadership. Each session is conducted under Chatham House rules to encourage open dialogue, honest reflection, and meaningful connection.
Our community is built on one core belief: leadership isn’t a solo sport and shouldn’t be lonely. The strongest leaders invest in both their own growth and their network.If you’re a tech leader seeking to build confidence, sharpen your strategic capabilities, and connect with peers on the same path - TechElevate is here to help you take that next step.
Through a combination of practical workshops, real-world case studies, and candid peer discussions, TechElevate offers a safe, collaborative environment to learn from experts and each other.

Every session focuses on high-impact leadership themes, from financial management and budgeting to strategic planning, executive communication, board liaison and change leadership. The format combines expert-led insights from our CIO community mentors and leadership coaches, mixed with facilitated peer interactions.
Participants walk away not just with theory, but with clear actions they can apply in their roles.
