About CXO50
Leadership. Execution. Impact.
Technology leadership has entered a more demanding phase. AI is being embedded into core systems, cloud and infrastructure investments are under scrutiny, and cyber risk and regulation have become standing boardroom concerns. In this environment, CXOs are expected to deliver stability, scale, and measurable outcomes while navigating constant change.
The CXO50 Awards & Conclave 2026, organised by Insight Media & Publishing and CXO Insight Middle East, recognises senior technology and digital leaders whose decisions and leadership are shaping organisational performance across the region. It honours leaders whose work reflects responsibility at scale, sustained execution, and strategic influence.
Are you one of them?
If your leadership has delivered measurable impact and guided your organisation through complexity, we invite you to submit a nomination for CXO50 2026.
