Hosted by HighlandTech  ×  The Ballance Strategy
Exclusive • Invite-Only Roundtable

One table. The security leaders actually putting AI to work. A candid, no-slides conversation about what's working, what isn't, and what's next.

Monday, September 15 4:00 – 6:00 PM Ruth's Chris Steak House, Atlanta

One seat per organization.  Active participation required.

Why this room is different

Not a webinar. A working table.

This is an invite-only gathering of enterprise security leaders, one representative per organization, built for real conversation, not passive listening. Come ready to contribute.

Peers, not vendors

Enterprise security leaders only, capped at one seat per company. Small by design so every voice carries.

Candid by design

A judgment-free zone. Share real wins, real losses, and hard-won lessons. No finger-pointing. Just shared growth.

Debate the hard calls

Bring the business decisions you're wrestling with. Multiple perspectives, respectfully argued, so you leave with answers.

Your seat at the table

What you're invited to do

Share what actually happened

Wins, losses, and the lessons behind them, so the whole table can learn and implement faster.

Trade practical tips

Exchange the advice and playbooks that move the industry forward, not theory.

Debate the big decisions

Pressure-test key topics and business calls with people who've made them, always respectfully.

Speak freely

A true judgment-free zone. What's said at the table is for the table's growth.

On the agenda

What we'll explore

Five conversations that get past the hype and into how AI is really reshaping the security leader's job.

01

Where AI is moving the needle

Beyond security tech: how leaders are using AI to manage teams, analyze information, decide faster, and get more done.

02

What's actually in use today

From Copilot, ChatGPT, and Claude to the AI baked into your security stack. Even the small experiments count.

03

The one thing you wish AI could do

The repetitive task or operational headache that still eats too much of your team's time.

04

The AI-driven leader, 2–3 years out

How the role changes: leading teams, running operations, and protecting people, property, and profits.
