The Motto for the Confare CIOSUMMITs 2025: Balancing in challenging times – Enabling visions
Visions are the foundation for balance …
…they allow us to set the right priorities. They show us which skills we need and give us the resilience to withstand turbulence. Balance, in turn, is the prerequisite for turning visions into reality. Find all information about the motto of 2025 here.
The Confare CIOSUMMIT Zurich will take place on September 10, 2025, at the Zurich Marriott Hotel.
