8th Talk to the Board: CISO + CSO 360

Talk to the Board: CISO + CSO 360 2026 convenes decision-makers across the full spectrum of enterprise risk – cyber, physical, geopolitical, and strategic governance. This is a board-facing security leadership forum.

Integrating risk narratives, you’ll engage with:

• CISOs and senior cybersecurity practitioners responsible for enterprise cyber resilience
• Corporate Security Directors overseeing operational protection and Geopolitical Intelligence leaders shaping risk foresight
• GRC C-Suite driving governance frameworks, regulatory alignment, risk quantification, tied directly to business impact
• Board Directors and NEDs influencing capital allocation and governance decisions
• Investors assessing resilience maturity, cyber posture, as drivers of valuation and long-term market confidence

Why?

Because boards no longer receive risk in separate packets. They receive:

• A ransomware attack linked to organised crime
• Supply chain disruption driven by geopolitical tensions
• Insider risk amplified by economic instability
• AI-enabled threat actors operating across borders
• Physical threats intersecting with cyber compromise

Together, they help boards understand: Convergence risk, cascading impact, systemic vulnerability. For our Sponsors, this means:

• Direct access to CISOs and C-Suite leaders shaping board-level risk narratives
• Insight into how security investment decisions are evaluated
• Alignment with cross-domain resilience priorities
• High-trust, high-level conversations – in addition to the 1-2-1 Meetings

What did recent Sponsors say about their CISO 360 experience? 

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. They attend as invited guests, in the sessions and at the dinners.

• 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 CISOs 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 CISOs come back, and why your presence among them carries weight.

What our Sponsors love

“This is my first time at a Pulse event, Talk to the Board. It’s been so fruitful and fantastic. I particularly enjoyed the 1-2-1 speed meetings. We covered a lot of ground in a short time. We’ve met some great new contacts, and I’d definitely come again.”
Holly Steele, Senior Vice President EMEA & UK, BlueVoyant

“The key take-away of CISO 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 budge, make decisions and who want to know about cybersecurity technologies that Mastercard cyber intelligence has.” John Quinn, EMEA Strategic Alliances Director, Mastercard

“We aren’t just doing this Pulse event but we did their New York event at the beginning of the year and we are also signed up to the CISO 360 in Singapore later this year. For me this has been a great opportunity to introduce our CEO, Stephen Cavey, to Pulse and to meet the CISO communities. We’ve come away with some great follow up opportunities – a really super event!” Head of Global Marketing, Ground Labs

“Pulse has exceeded expectations again in terms of the event they put on, the content and very much the important factor for us is on the social side where we get to socialise with CISOs on boat trips!”
Matt Middleton-Leal, Managing Director, EMEA, Qualys 

“With normal events that we attend, its fleeting and you only get moments with your colleagues. You don’t really have an opportunity to spend quality time or have the bandwidth to go deep into topics and subject areas. CISO 360 does this in a very  unique way.”
Torquil Macleod, Director, Via Resource

“Pulse put on what was the impossible, nearing the end of covid restrictions It’s been an amazing experience. Fantastic delegates. Conversations have been brilliant, it’s a great event for us, thanks”
Ross Brewer, General Manager & Vice President – EMEA & APJ, AttackIQ

“Pulse creates a unique environment for us to interact with the senior leadership team in our customer base and to prospect around new clients. Because of the unique environment people are much more open to talking and discuss issues. If this was a formal business environment it would be impossible for us to do that so thanks. It’s a fantastic event for us!”
Matt Middleton-Leal, Managing Director EMEA North, Qualys

“First and foremost, you know what you’re going to get with Pulse, the quality of delegate is always high. The agenda is very relevant. Finally, it’s great to be back face to face to build relationships. A thoroughly successful event for us!”
Dan Panesar, Director UK & Ireland, Securonix

“This is our first time at a Pulse event. It’s been a very positive experience. Fantastic to be face to face with customers. Great to have 1:1 meetings. Really insightful talks and the acceleration in digital transformation, one we’ll do again!”
Mark Lavis-Jones, Director Enterprise Cyber, QinetiQ

“This is our first time at a Pulse CISO 360 event. What a fantastic event! Great to get together and we’ve had very effective quality meetings. Great content with workshops and breakout sessions. I look forward to many more in the future”.
Richard Fridge, Regional Sales Manager, HUMAN

“2.5 days to mix with delegates allows both parties to determine whether any business is to be done and to develop personal relationships. We generated and qualified many leads which stand a good chance of leading to business. What went well: – understanding what customers want: a product of spending time with them – quality of delegates: as good as any event but the key difference was the amount of time spent listening to them and the opportunity to socialise. – quality of support from Pulse: very happy!”
Head of Commercial Business Development, Garrison

“Pulse Conferences’ events – the most informative, interactive and engaging event I have ever participated in.”
EMEA Platform Director, SailPoint

“Excellent value for me and my organisation. Being able to engage senior level execs in the cybersecurity space on a 1-1 basis is invaluable. The evening activities were entertaining and really helped build trust and relationships.”
Director, SailPoint

“This was our first but definitely not our last CISO 360! A well planned and executed event with a clear goal of providing tangible value for the participants in combination with a great community feel sure makes it a stand-out event to return to.”
Director, NetClean

“Team Pulse put together a fantastically well organised and thoroughly enjoyable event in Rome. The CISO 360 Pulse Conference was most informative, engaging and gave us a great opportunity for learning, networking and relationship building. Looking forward to the next one!”
Director, Synack

“Pulse delivers some of the most informative and worthwhile events. Their topics, speakers and ability to engage at the highest level to secure attendance means that you are constantly engaged and come away learning something new and meeting new contacts.”
Director EMEA, SailPoint

“Thank you Pulse for the smooth organisation of this huge logistical challenge. My team told me it worked brilliantly and that the networking was one of the most valuable parts of being a sponsor.”
CMO, Company85 (now Telstra Purple)
