CIOs to Address Data Strategy and Decision Execution at Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane

2026-02-03 08:06 Last Updated At:08:25

As organisations rely more heavily on data to guide strategy, the ability to make consistent, repeatable decisions has become a defining challenge for IT leaders. While data volumes continue to grow, many leadership teams struggle to align on what data matters, how it should be interpreted, and how it translates into action. At Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane, March 17 – 18, 2026, data-driven sessions will focus on helping CIOs and senior IT leaders build the structures and literacy required to support confident decision-making across the enterprise.

SYDNEY, Feb. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Decision quality has emerged as a critical differentiator for IT organisations under increasing scrutiny to deliver measurable outcomes. Without shared understanding and clear frameworks, even well-funded data initiatives can stall at the point of execution. Taking place March 17 – 18, 2026, at W Brisbane, Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane will feature a dedicated set of data-driven sessions designed to help IT leaders strengthen how decisions are governed and carried through in practice.

Now in its second annual APAC edition, Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane will deliver a hands-on strategy conference for CIOs, senior directors, and IT executives focused on translating research into execution. The data-driven sessions are designed to help leaders connect data strategy directly to leadership decisions, improve data literacy across teams, and apply structured approaches that support consistent outcomes in complex environments.

"Data only becomes valuable when leaders can consistently act on it and make choices they're willing to stand behind," says George Khreish, Managing Partner at Info-Tech Research Group, APAC. "Across many APAC organisations, we're seeing that the main challenge is not so much access to data, but more the lack of shared understanding around how it should inform decisions. At Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane, our data-driven sessions will help CIOs understand how to better strengthen data literacy and execution so data reliably supports better outcomes."

Featured Data-Driven Sessions at Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane
The following data-driven sessions at Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane bring together strategic guidance, execution frameworks, and region-specific insights to help IT leaders strengthen decision outcomes across their organisations:

  • Build a Robust and Comprehensive Data Strategy
    This session examines how data strategy should directly support critical decisions and business outcomes. Attendees will gain clarity on how to position data as a decision-enabling capability rather than a reporting function, helping leadership teams align on what data matters most.
  • The Data and Analytics Playbook: Secrets and Steps to Systematically Achieve IT Excellence 
    This interactive workshop explores the 12-step Data and Analytics Playbook and how to apply it within real-world environments. Participants will leave with a prioritised roadmap to move data and analytics from reactive firefighting to forward-driving delivery.
  • Info-Tech's Data Digest: Insights From Our APAC Members' Experiences 
    Grounded in insights from Info-Tech's APAC member base, this session highlights how regional technology, regulatory, and cultural dynamics are shaping IT decisions. Attendees will gain evidence-based perspectives to benchmark priorities and inform leadership discussions.

These sessions align with findings from Info-Tech's recently published Data Priorities 2026 report, which shows that as organisations accelerate AI adoption and digital initiatives, gaps in data quality, governance, and literacy increasingly limit their ability to execute with confidence. Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane extends this research by providing leaders with practical frameworks, peer context, and actionable guidance they can apply immediately.

Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane will bring together CIOs, senior IT executives, and technology leaders from across the Asia-Pacific region for two days of research-driven programming. The conference will feature mainstage sessions, interactive breakouts, peer discussions, and one-on-one analyst meetings designed to help IT leaders move from strategy to execution in complex and fast-moving environments.

Additional sessions and speaker announcements will be released in the coming weeks. For more information about the event, please visit the Info-Tech LIVE 2026 in Brisbane page.

VICTORIA, Seychelles, April 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- MEXC, the world's fastest-growing digital asset exchange and a pioneer in zero-fee trading, has announced a series of initiatives to integrate and expand the use of USD1, a US dollar stablecoin, across its ecosystem. By incorporating USD1 into its trading infrastructure and product suite, MEXC aims to broaden its use cases across the platform, including trading support, product integration, and wider ecosystem participation, while providing global users with more diverse and resilient stablecoin options.

USD1 is a stablecoin redeemable on a 1:1 basis for U.S. dollars. Each USD1 is 100% backed by a reserve consisting of short-term U.S. government Treasuries, U.S. dollar deposits, and other cash equivalents. These reserve assets are held or maintained by BitGo Trust Company, Inc. and/or its affiliates. USD1 is issued by BitGo, while World Liberty Financial provides branding and certain operational support.

MEXC remains committed to offering a broad range of high-quality assets. Through this integration, MEXC will leverage its established product suite to expand the utility of USD1 across its ecosystem:

  • Deep Product Integration: MEXC plans to gradually integrate USD1 across its product offerings, including Launchpool, Savings, and Futures collateral, subject to platform availability. Through these integrations, USD1 may be used as payment and settlement asset within the ecosystem, broadening its utility across the platform.
  • Liquidity and Zero-Fee Support: MEXC will introduce additional USD1 trading pairs and launch associated zero-fee promotions. Leveraging the platform's deep liquidity and industry-leading low-fee structure, MEXC provides global users with a more convenient and cost-effective channel for USD1 interaction.
  • Ecosystem Activity Empowerment: To enhance user awareness and experience with the stability of USD1, MEXC will launch a series of ecosystem incentive programs. Through various interactive mechanisms, these initiatives aim to lower the barrier to entry and accelerate the adoption of USD1 in real-world trading scenarios.

Vugar, Chief Operating Officer of MEXC, stated: "USD1 strengthens our mission to make high-quality assets more accessible, efficient, and usable at scale. Stablecoins are only as powerful as their distribution. By integrating USD1 into the MEXC ecosystem, we are expanding compliant stablecoin choice while enhancing trading and capital allocation tools. With over 40 million users and a strong zero-fee conviction, MEXC delivers immediate scale, deep liquidity, and real utility for USD1, accelerating its adoption across global markets."

As USD1 trading pairs and related features go live, MEXC will continue to explore practical use cases that bring added value to users across the platform. More details on upcoming initiatives will be shared in the coming weeks.
