There is a discipline to a Sage ‘Great Conversation’ event. We harness some of the best ideas in the industry from the stakeholders in the industry: Consultants, Analysts, Technology Vendors, Executives and Integrators and ask the tough questions that create a ‘Great Conversation’.

We also are highly disciplined to ensure the conversations frame the event, rather than a vendor.  For example:

• We reserve the main stage for the leaders who are actively changing the industry.

• We take these main stage ideas and go to the workshops and case studies to see the logic behind the process. How was the problem identified? Who was on your team? What process did you use to get to your outcome? What was the outcome?

• We then go to the panels to see where it might be going leveraging a cross functional team of that represents the entire ecosystem. 

In our Great Conversation in Security Events we know that, more than ever, executives must balance budgets and resources with the core mission of protecting assets and people while facilitating the objectives of their organization. How well they do this will ultimately dictate their ability to add value; through their people, processes and technology. The Great Conversation becomes a catalytic event for these conversations and other sponsored conversations throughout the year including online forums. Emerging leaders in security have the opporunity to enroll in the Security Executive Council's Next Generation Security Leader Program, now a part of The Great Conversation Event.

Our surveys show that these events and the communication platform that supports the stakeholders:

• Drive value for the entire market ecosystem

• Create efficiencies and a path to organizational value for the executives

• Create alignment with their product and services vendors

• Create a monetary impact for all the stakeholders

"The Great Conversation" is a premier security event. It combines thought leadership with actionable intelligence that can be applied by executives and their teams."

"PSA is delighted to be participating in the Great Conversation. Bringing together the full circle of decision making players in the security space is a stroke of genius. It is surprising how this seemingly simple concept has never been done before as stand alone security silos have not served the best interest of any of the security players."
