2025 New York/New Jersey Higher Education IT Leadership Summit: Planning for the Future of Technology in Higher Education
Colleges & universities in New York & New Jersey, like those across the country, are at a transformative moment. As they adapt to shifting demographics, evolving student needs, & changing funding models, the role of technology has never been more essential-or full of opportunity. IT leaders are uniquely positioned to help their colleges & universities thrive by enabling innovation, advancing data-informed decision-making, & improving institutional & student outcomes.
The 2025 Higher Education IT Leadership Summit brings together senior technology & institutional leaders for a day of strategic exchange, peer learning, & collaborative exploration. The Summit agenda reflects the priorities identified by the Advisory Board, offering a balance of strategic insight & practical relevance. While the full agenda will span a range of leadership & operational topics, the Summit is grounded in the issues top of mind for today's higher education CIOs. These include building digital trust; data & technology governance; modernizing systems; IT organizational models & decision-making structures; aligning AI & data strategies with institutional priorities & mission; navigating the evolving cybersecurity & risk landscape; & strengthening the IT staff talent pipeline. A key focus of this year's summit is the opportunity-and necessity-to take a fresh look at legacy infrastructure, systems, & policies that have evolved over time. Aligning these foundational elements with today's institutional strategies is critical to ensuring that IT remains affordable, agile, & sustainable for the future.
These priorities-whether addressed in sessions, panels, or conversations throughout the day-will shape the dialogue & can lead to meaningful relationships afterwards. This Summit is a platform for fresh thinking & actionable solutions. Attendees will leave informed, inspired & equipped to elevate IT as a driver of institutional agility, academic excellence, & long-term success in a dynamic digital landscape.
Participants are encouraged to come ready to share their real-world challenges, engage actively in sessions, & contribute to a collaborative, solution-focused environment.
