Suppliers                         The CIO Forum | Now in Its 14th Year

Are You Satisfied with the Amount of New Business You Are Creating?

Are You Getting Past Gate Keepers and to Enough Real IT Decision Makers?

Our job is to provide you with an audience of potential clients (delegates). They will be sufficiently senior and control sufficiently large IT budgets to be of genuine interest to you. Your job is to build relationships with them through which you will sell in the future.

Suppliers will select which of our delegates they would like to meet and we will pre-arrange meetings with as many of them as we can, either one to one or in small groups at mealtimes.

Contact us if you would like to know more about the senior IT executives (delegates) who will be joining us.
We have limited space to 100 senior IT executives and places are also limited to suppliers by sectors to ensure a broad range of interests are available for the delegates.

We offer Suppliers exceptional introductions to more sales opportunities in 1 day than they are likely to achieve in months back in the office.

Top Five Reasons for Suppliers to Attend:

1. Unmatched Reputation: As the originators of the face to face pre-scheduled meetings concept, since 1989 we have continually strived to improve this format to bring senior level buyers and sellers together. We are proud to have earned a high quality reputation that has become the benchmark to emulate.

2. Invite Only Attendee List: The Forum brings together a pre-qualified audience of CIO's, CISOs & Enterprise IT leaders across several industry verticals with large budget control. All delegates are extensively profiled, meaning that you know where your best business development opportunities lie weeks prior to the event. Our ‘RichMatch’ appointment system helps you select your best opportunities you would like to meet with. We offer the most robust matchmaking software in the industry.

3. Speed your sales cycle: The Richmond face to face format significantly reduces your sales cycle, helping you to build new profitable relationships with budget holders that otherwise prove elusive through traditional marketing methods. Carry out a set of pre-scheduled business meetings with qualified attendees with confirmed budgets to spend and declared projects in the pipeline. Rather than flying all over the country, save company marketing dollars and attend our renowned business development program.

4. Intimate/focused environment: Step away from the distractions of the office and be among industry elite at a first class venue. In an incredibly competitive market where every budget dollar is fought over by multiple competing vendors, its invaluable to have distraction free time with key budget-holders. This will give you a chance to generate new business, renew friendships, and address the current issues affecting us today.

5. Return on Investment: It is becoming more and more difficult to get your foot in the door with key prospects at the Enterprise level. We offer the finest platform in the industry where meetings are born upon mutual consent. Our goal is to help you reap a healthy return on investment, it's about quality not quantity.

Let us help you achieve your sales goals for the upcoming year.
