      <image:caption>Craig Taylor Co-Founder + vCISO, Cyberhoot Craig Taylor is the co-founder &amp; vCISO at CyberHoot, where he turns decades of cybersecurity experience into gamified, engaging, and occasionally hilarious learning experiences for the modern workforce. With a CISSP badge earned way back in 2001 (before most people knew what phishing was), Craig is on a mission to flip the $6B phish testing industry on its head replacing shame with encouragement and fear with confidence.  When he’s not building safer digital ecosystems or helping MSPs teach cyber literacy at scale, Craig is likely riding 192 miles across New England for cancer research, leading Portsmouth’s Rotary Club, or giving speeches that don’t put people to sleep (thanks, Toastmasters). Whether advising Fortune 500s, mentoring startups, or decoding security frameworks over coffee, Craig believes the best defense is a well-trained, positively motivated human. And maybe a backup password manager.</image:caption>

Whether it’s designing rock-solid systems, architecting powerful integrations, or writing code like a caffeinated wizard, Chuck powers the engine that keeps CyberHoot soaring. A man of faith, discipline, and unshakable integrity, Chuck balances his tech brilliance with a spiritual core and a relentless pursuit of better. He’s read over 400 books on business, faith, money, and personal growth and tests new ideas in the company like a mad scientist with a mission. When he’s not building or improving something at CyberHoot, you’ll find him lifting weights, running 5Ks, or swimming laps (often before most people have had their coffee). He believes in evolving daily, living purposefully, and leading by example with humility, hustle, and heart. Happily married since 1996 and a proud dad to three amazing sons, Chuck brings passion, purpose, and a lot of sweat equity to everything he does.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>For years now, healthcare has been pegged as the next major industry for tech disruption - and for good reason.  Healthcare spending has consistently outpaced inflation, now accounting for 17.5% of GDP, while quality and outcomes lag behind other developed countries, with many measures trending in the wrong direction.  Yet, despite countless attempts and billions of dollars invested, the healthcare industry has been remarkably resistant to meaningful disruption.  Why?  To understand this question and to forecast the future of technology in healthcare, it's essential to understand the complex economics underlying one of America's largest and most complicated industries.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Today, we celebrate the crucial role your network plays in propelling achievements and innovation, overcoming challenges, and nurturing success. Acknowledging the need for increased representation of women in leadership, especially at the executive level, inspires us to explore ways to build a thriving community under these circumstances. Women are told to collaborate, to help, and to build community. But, in the midst of a more limited pool of female connections, how can women create meaningful relationships?  What strategies can be embraced to kickstart this journey, and what positive outcomes might emerge from nurturing these connections? Tammylynne Jonas, Global CIO for Donaldson has been a leader in technology for over two decades. She credits her success to the mentorship and support of numerous IT leaders who have invested in her growth throughout the years.  Join us, as she shares her first-hand experience on building her own community and elaborates on the benefits she’s gained from it.</image:caption>

Our speakers will guide you through the essentials for creating safe and inclusive spaces where women can share their experiences, overcome challenges and celebrate their successes.

ERGs also align seamlessly with your business objectives, ensuring that your organization's outcomes are not only achieved but exceeded. ERGs facilitate valuable partnerships and collaborative efforts, strengthening your company's position in the market.

      <image:title>Meet Our CEO - MEET ALYSSA</image:title>
      <image:caption>Raised by two entrepreneurial parents, some of Alyssa’s fondest memories involve dinnertime conversations of budding business ideas, where despite her young age, Alyssa felt genuinely involved and valued. While it would take another 14 years and a successful career in IT before Alyssa could bestow those same sentiments onto others, Premier Connects is now the elevated version of her childhood dinner table, inviting meaningful conversations and welcomed perspectives to and from some of the leading CIO’s across the world. But it didn’t come without its own set of speed bumps along the way.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Meet Our CEO</image:title>
      <image:caption>Faced with a new (to her) business (Premier Connects has been around for over 20 years) and a rapidly declining need for in-person events following the 2019 pandemic—Alyssa pivoted seemingly overnight to turn Premier Connects into an exclusively virtual platform for IT leaders and companies. While others were forced to cancel events and postpone speaking engagements, Premier Connects offered lifelines to executives. Within just a few months, Premier Connects tackled inclusion with forums such as Women In Tech and Diversity In Tech; and difficult topics boldly addressing gender inequality, depression, and mental health. Through the limitless capability afforded by virtual events, leaders in IT can now connect, brainstorm, network, and learn from the brightest in their field without ever leaving their corner office or home. Since acquiring Premier Connects in 2018, Alyssa and her team have made it their mission to take Premier past one and done events, instead igniting a movement of community well past a singular forum or topic, to truly build lasting, impactful connections.</image:caption>
