For sixteen years, CIO Association has brought together technology leaders with a simple belief: the best insights don’t come from vendors or analysts alone - they come from each other.

CIO Habba 2026, hosted by CIO Association Bangalore Chapter, is the fullest expression of that belief.

If you are a CIO, CISO, CTO, or CDO, here is what you will carry home from the 13th of June: fresh perspectives on the decisions you are navigating today, meaningful conversations with peers who understand the weight of those decisions, and relationships that will quietly inform your thinking for months to come.

Habba is not a conference you attend to be sold to - it is a gathering you attend to think clearly, connect meaningfully, and lead confidently. Sixteen years of building a community of leaders - and this edition will set a new benchmark for insight, connection, and impact.

📅 13th June 2026, Saturday
