DT is set to host the DT CIO Roundtable 2026, a high-impact forum designed for senior IT leaders to explore the future of enterprise storage and data-driven innovation. Scheduled for 14th January in New Delhi, the event is powered by Iris Global and Dell Technologies and will bring together CIOs, CTOs, CISOs, CDOs, and Heads of IT and Infrastructure for an evening of in-depth discussions, insights, and knowledge sharing.
Under the theme “Reimagining Enterprise Storage: Powering the Data-Driven Future,” the roundtable will address the rapidly evolving requirements of modern IT environments. As enterprises increasingly adopt AI-driven applications, hybrid cloud deployments, and large-scale data analytics, storage solutions are emerging as critical enablers of business agility, performance, and resilience.
Key Discussion Areas:
Next-Generation Enterprise Storage: Understanding the capabilities required to manage AI workloads, high-volume data, and mission-critical applications efficiently
Hybrid and Multi-Cloud Strategies: Optimizing storage across on-premises, public, and private clouds for agility and scalability
Cyber Resilience and Data Governance: Ensuring security, compliance, and business continuity in an increasingly complex digital landscape
Peer Knowledge Exchange: Learning from fellow CIOs and IT leaders about best practices, challenges, and strategic approaches
Emphasizing the intent behind organizing the CIO Roundtable, Rajeev Ranjan, Editor and Publisher, Digital Terminal, said, “The DT CIO Roundtable 2026 has been thoughtfully designed as a high-impact forum where senior IT leaders can step away from routine discussions and engage in strategic dialogue on the future of enterprise storage. As AI-driven workloads, analytics, and hybrid cloud models reshape IT priorities, this roundtable will enable CIOs to exchange perspectives on building storage architectures that are intelligent, resilient, and closely aligned with long-term business transformation.”
Highlighting the value of peer-to-peer learning and real-world insight sharing, Jyoti Janda, Executive Editor, Digital Terminal, said, “The DT CIO Roundtable 2026 is centered on meaningful conversations that reflect the realities CIOs face today. By bringing together technology leaders in a closed-door setting, the forum encourages open discussions on storage modernization, data governance, and cyber resilience, allowing participants to learn from real enterprise use cases and leave with actionable insights that can be applied within their own organizations.”
Underlining the evolving role of CIOs in balancing innovation with stability, Onkar Sharma, Consulting Editor, Digital Terminal, said, “Today’s CIOs are required to balance innovation with operational stability, especially as data volumes grow and workloads become more demanding. The DT CIO Roundtable 2026 encourages open, peer-driven dialogue on how enterprises can architect storage strategies that deliver performance, scalability, and security while supporting long-term digital growth.”
In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, enterprises are generating unprecedented volumes of data, driven by AI, IoT, and advanced analytics. This explosion of data has made enterprise storage a strategic priority, requiring systems that not only store information efficiently but also enable real-time insights and business-critical decision-making. Modern storage solutions must balance speed, scalability, and security to support AI workloads, hybrid cloud strategies, and growing enterprise demands.
For CIOs and IT leaders, this shift represents both an opportunity and a challenge. They must design IT infrastructures that can handle increasingly complex workloads while ensuring resilience, data governance, and operational efficiency. Forums like the DT CIO Roundtable offer a platform to exchange experiences, discuss emerging trends, and gain actionable insights from peers and industry experts.
Hybrid and multi-cloud adoption is transforming how organizations manage data, offering flexibility and scalability while introducing new management complexities. Participants will explore strategies to optimize storage across private, public, and on-premises environments, ensuring performance, compliance, and business continuity.
The event is structured as a closed-door roundtable to encourage candid conversations and peer-to-peer learning. Participants will have the opportunity to engage directly with Dell leadership, gain practical insights on next-generation storage technologies, and explore real-world use cases from enterprise deployments.
Beyond technical insights, the event emphasizes peer learning and collaboration. Through discussions on real-world use cases, best practices, and strategic approaches, CIOs and senior IT leaders can glean knowledge that directly informs their organizational strategies, fostering innovation and driving technology-led business transformation.
