We're hosting Founder Summit in Boston on June 23

TechCrunch’s Founder Summit is a founder-focused event, not a product or IT announcement, but it signals where startup priorities and venture capital attention are headed: fundraising, sales scaling, hiring, security, and operational leadership. For CIOs and technology leaders, the strategic takeaway is that the next generation of vendors and partners will be shaped by these startup pressures, so IT organizations should expect faster-moving, more opinionated products and a greater need to evaluate emerging suppliers for maturity, scalability, and security.
