Over the years we’ve made the Visionary Leadership Awards recognition event more fun for the award winners; this year we’re bringing in Domenic Allen, a rock and roll legend from the band Foreigner.

John Valente, Security Consultant
Cyber security is a team sport. Not only does a company need strong technical and people leadership, but they also need trusted partners. Networking with peers within and across your industries is vital to gain insights into yet to be announced attack vectors and remediation tactics. Personal trusted relationships within cyber security space is one of the best uses of a leader’s time. Networking is not limited to just companies or corporations but government and vendor communities as well.

Rebecca Duvick, Business Development Manager, PCs for People
Disposal of electronic assets is an often-overlooked aspect of cyber security. A recent study of hard drives purchased on the resale market found over 40% contained data. Choosing a vendor who is certified and audited will assure your organization that your data is being handled properly.
Beyond ensuring safe handling, your electronics recycling can also increase your organizations Community Impact and Sustainability (aka ESG) scores when you partner with a nonprofit like PCs for People. PCs for People will wipe and refurbish your computers and distribute them to low-income individuals and responsibly recycle your end of life assets at no cost to your organization.
Join me for our Small Business track, Securely and responsibly disposing of your IT equipment, to learn more.
