Sponsor feedback, CSO 360 Global Congress

Protecting people, profits, property, information, reputation. Resilience and innovation as business advantage.

The 3rd CSO 360 Middle East Conference convenes the people accountable for protecting the enterprise: corporate security, global and regional security operations, investigations, geopolitical risk and intelligence, business continuity, anti-fraud and crisis management, travel risk, and the executives and board members they report to. Cyber is only part of that remit, addressed fully at the co-located 7th CISO 360 Middle East Conference. Delegates come from across Türkiye, the GCC, Middle East, EMEA and MENA regions with strong attendance from host Türkiye and the Gulf. The agenda is organic, shaped by the priorities registrants rank when they book and is still evolving.

As a valued Sponsor, you’ll engage with:

  • Chief Security Officers, Corporate Security Directors overseeing operational protection and Geopolitical Intelligence and Investigations leaders shaping risk foresight
  • C-Suite driving governance frameworks, regulatory alignment, risk, tied directly to business impact
  • Board Directors and NEDs influencing capital allocation and governance decisions

For sponsors, this means:

  • Direct access to the budget holders and buyers in corporate security, intelligence, investigations and resilience, in one room over three days
  • Insight into how protective security investment is evaluated and justified upward to the board
  • Alignment with cross-domain resilience priorities rather than a single product category
  • High-trust, senior conversations across the congress, in addition to the 1-2-1 meeting programme
  • A genuinely international delegate base, weighted to Türkiye, the Gulf, Middle East, EMEA, MENA

Why Sponsor? 

  • Meetings arranged for you, end to end

We schedule your one-to-one meetings before you arrive, matched on mutual relevance and selection. Your team arrives with a diary rather than a stand to staff. We regularly deliver 250%- 270% of the meetings contracted. 

  • Your own event, without running your own event

A curated space, your chosen theme, your chosen session type, inside an event that is already full of the people you want in the room. You get the depth of a hosted event without the cost, the lead time or the risk of filling it yourself.

  • Bring your clients with you

Complimentary places for your existing customers and prospects to partake as invited guests, in the sessions and at the evening dinner, receptions, cultural activities.

  • In the room, not waiting outside for the breaks

Networking dinners and cultural visits are part of the congress, not an add-on for sponsors. Your team sits among the delegates throughout – learning alongside them in the main conference room. There is no parts of the event you can’t access. You are there as a valued enabling sponsor.

  • A two-way conversation about your offering

Our CSOs join these events to think aloud about problems they have not solved. Under The Chatham House Rule they will tell you where your category is falling short. Sponsors who listen closely leave with a clearer view of their own roadmap.

  • Worked through with you, start to finish

We agree the content, the messaging and the practicalities with you from signature through to onsite delivery and post-event follow-up. You input on theme and delegate profile; we handle everything else.

  • What we don’t sell

Delegate lists, agenda control and pitching slots are not available at any price. That is why the CSOs come back, and why your presence among them carries weight.

What our Sponsors love

“Being able to moderate the panel, have great discussions across such an amazing landscape with so many different security leaders is great. The 121 meetings were really special. We’ve had a lot of amazing profound conversations, hearing about their worlds, their challenges across global security and the threat landscape, understanding further how we can help support people in some of those areas”
Sara Pratley, SVP Global Intelligence, AlertMedia

“CSO 360 in Rome has been fantastic. A great way to engage with CSOs and our key message at this event has been how do we bring software and data back to the heart of the security and resilience industry and the result has been fantastic. Pulse has done a fantastic job in bringing everyone together and we look forward to future events and to continuing the discussion.”
Botan Osman, CEO, Restrata

“We’ve been sponsoring Pulse CSO 360 for a number of years. The reason we really like this event is the great people that come. It’s a great audience for us. Fantastic to be able to network, share ideas and to speak to people in the industry about the issues of the day and the shared things we all face. That’s been fantastic for us over the years. The other thing that sets this apart from the others is the fun element of engaging together. The Pulse team is very good at making sure you get the most out of the event in terms of building the relationships and connecting. Incredibly value, a lot of fun!!”
Justin Crump, CEO, Sibylline

“It’s my second time at CSO 360. Always a great opportunity to network with people we haven’t seen in the industry for some time. Great to interact to understand new technologies and understand the physical threats that we’ll be facing in the future.”
Robert Aldous, Chief Customer Officer, Solace Global 

“Great to be back at another CSO 360 event! It’s been superb. We’ve done a lot of networking with our friends and partners at the networking events in the evenings. Lots of great conversations have come from it. I’m already looking forward to next year.”
Andrew Devereux, Risk Intelligence Officer, Healix

“I attend a lot of security events but these days its quality over quantity, for me the CSO means. The level of person who attend means you can learn something and take away From a sponsor perspective, I couldn’t have a better audience and market!”
Andy Williams, Director, SafeHotels Alliance

“The key take-away of CSO 360 is the calibre of the individuals who attend. I’ve done these events over many years and I’m incredibly impressed with the team. They pulled this off brilliantly! I’ve had conversations with people who have budget, make decisions and who want to know about technologies that Mastercard cyber intelligence has.”
EMEA Strategic Alliances Director, Mastercard

“As someone relatively new to security industry events, I found CSO 360’s blend of formal sessions and informal networking particularly effective. The Global Congress bridges generational perspectives, ensuring younger professionals have a voice alongside seasoned leaders. The opening keynote, delivered by the BBC’s Frank Gardner, and the predictions panel were especially valuable for understanding how security trends might shape future news cycles. The informal atmosphere encourages genuine dialogue and relationship-building, making complex security topics more accessible for industry newcomers.”
Breaking News Editor, Factal

“Yet another fabulous event from the awesome, tireless Pulse team! Speed dating was great for both the sponsors and delegates, with plenty of time and the evenings to continue the introductions”
Enterprise Security, QinetiQ

“Fantastic event, relevant topics discussed and delivered by subject matter experts”
Partner, Kaseware

“This is my first time at CSO 360. I wanted to connect with other individuals passionate about improving the quality and efficiency of the products they’re providing for their firms. I’ve had an absolutely amazing time and a long list of highlights. This includes connecting with other professionals looking at the same issues from various perspectives. The boat cruise and the dinner at the Reichstag were also amazing. The networking here has been unique and incredibly valuable.”
Director, Emergent Risk International
