Breaking the Illusion – Leading through Innovation in a Disruptive Era

with Gina Yacone

This panel brings together IT, cybersecurity and business leaders to debunk the illusion and discuss actionable strategies for fostering a culture of responsible, impactful innovation. The discussion will focus on balancing security and growth, addressing regulatory challenges, and moving beyond “Innovation Theater” to create sustainable, scalable transformation.

Key Discussion Points:

  • How organizations unknowingly sabotage innovation efforts through excessive risk aversion while believing they are advancing.
  • Proactive security approaches, transparent decision-making, and strategies to minimize liability.
  • Identifying the difference between superficial innovation and meaningful transformation.
  • How security and innovation leaders can collaborate to develop a strategy that enables calculated risk-taking and long-term value creation.
