It may suit executives seeking peer discussion of business challenges and role priorities; value depends on whether those topics and conversations match your goals.
Executives at CIO gatherings usually wear business casual to business professional, such as slacks and a blazer or collared shirt, at a hotel venue like the Hyatt Regency Minneapolis. December in Minneapolis is cold, so a warm coat is sensible for the walk between the street and the venue.
