Speaking session

The end of the CIO? What comes next

This session tackles the fastest-growing and least understood cost category in IT: AI. Pricing models are volatile, increasingly tied to consumption, and difficult to forecast. At the same time, shadow AI (and its new twist, Bring Your Own AI) is spreading, creating hidden spend and unmanaged risk. The era of the “old CIO” is ending. The new mandate is orchestration of cost, value, and risk.
Why this matters for I&O leaders
Gartner says I&O leaders are under pressure to:
- Optimize costs without slowing innovation
- Manage the risk of ungoverned SaaS and AI adoption
That’s exactly where Xensam comes in.
- Cost: Expose hidden software and AI spend before it spirals
- Value: Translate usage and adoption data into measurable ROI
- Risk: Defend against compliance pitfalls and shadow adoption
One platform. Simply Intelligent.
