  • Mckenzie Wright
  • June 1, 2017

How do you manage the business of IT? If you’ve asked yourself that more than once, it’s time to consider another career path… just kidding. The reality is this isn’t a new concern. In fact, every year over 1,000 IT and finance professionals meet to discuss this very topic.

On November 6th in Las Vegas, the TBM (Technology Business Management) Conference will kick off its fifth annual event as the world’s only gathering dedicated to managing the business of IT. With 1,350+ technology and finance leaders from around the globe, the atmosphere is prime for the exchange of ideas, strategy sharing, advancement of careers, and networking opportunities.

Here are just a few of the things past conference attendees have said about the experience:

"It’s good to have the diversity of perspectives because I think you usually come out with the best solution." – Gboyega Adebayo, TBM Conference attendee

"This is such a cool event, what it really means is that the profession we represent is finally coming of age." – Rob Carter, EVP & CIO, FedEx Corporation

Watch the video below to hear why you should attend the 2017 TBM Conference, November 6th -9th in Las Vegas.
