“My first time at the CSO 360 Congress has been an absolute triumph. There’s a huge cross-section of speakers and a genuinely international audience. Hence, you gain deep perspectives. Some good socialising also goes with it, where you can meet and build relationships without necessarily talking about business. The setting here in Berlin has been spectacular – not least at dinner in the German Parliament. If you are a CSO or a CISO, I think it’s certainly worth attending – it’s probably the most informative event of this type I’ve been to. If you are a consultant or someone who works with the C-suite, I think it’s hugely important to be here because you’re meeting the people who are often the gatekeepers who are often difficult to get to know and meet outside of these events.” Philip Grindell, CEO and Founder, Defuse
“It is an absolute privilege to come here and speak at CSO 360. The audience’s engagement level was very high. During the coffee break afterwards, I couldn’t move because so many people wanted to learn more, which shows what the community is like. They’re a great group from a diverse range of industries and companies. I’ll be back next year.” Steve Young, CEO, The Association of Corporate Investigators
“I loved my first CSO 360. I followed the 2022 edition in Istanbul on LinkedIn and saw very positive comments from the community. The mixture is right. You’ve got security practitioners and outside providers. Sometimes, with Germans, we do get focused on facts and data. But having the British influence and a bit more light-hearted approach makes it a worthwhile conference here. I lived in Berlin for nearly ten years and had never had the opportunity to eat in the Reichstag before – what a treat.” Carolin Jameson, Head of Business Resilience, Siemens Healthineers
“It’s my first time at CSO 360, and I came because of the topics on the agenda and the people attending. There were exciting speakers at the conference, especially the keynotes on both days. I will make the time to attend next year to see even more fantastic people from all around the world, speak with other people, hear their concerns, and learn from them.” Albert Koenen, CSO, WML
“I’ve heard many good things about CSO 360 over the years. Many CSOs I know have almost become CSO 360 groupies and talk about it in such fun terms. There has been some excellent content, and I’ve taken a lot of notes. And also there’s a nice social atmosphere as well. We’ve done some fun things in the evening. So it’s a nice mix of work and then a bit of downtime.” Rachel Briggs OBE, Co-Founder and CEO of The Clarity Factory
“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.” Dorothea Gioe, Director of Training, Emergent Risk International
“What a successful conference. It’s been brilliant. The quality of the conversation and the delegates were amazing. The networking is unrivalled. The hospitality is superb. Thanks, Germany, for a wonderful event. It just gets better and better and better every year. And I cannot impress on people enough how you need to be at the next conference in 2024.” Simon Scales, Chief Education & Development Officer – Association of Corporate Investigators (ACi)
“This conference is very different from any other one I’ve been to because it’s bigger, there’s more to do, a huge range of topics, and everyone’s lovely. I had a great time in the evenings. As a vendor in the security recruitment space, we have had lots of people coming up to us. We’re here, we’re networking, getting to know people and telling people about our opportunities as well. I would definitely recommend CSO 360 to other people. I’ve learnt a lot over the past few days, spoken to interesting people and had a great time.” Zainab Oshua, Recruitment Consultant, Enteles Search
