Spring 2027 Zion Retreat Sponsorship

"Groups like CISO Ascent give global security leaders a rare space to reflect, collaborate with honesty, and build friendships that last long after the storms, the trails, and the biscuits and gravy. Awesome group and looking forward to the next one."

"Incredible views and incredible people. One of the best events I've ever participated in."

"Event of the year."

"I had the chance to meet some amazing peers and take in some unbelievable views. Grateful to be part of this community and experience."

"This wasn't your typical cybersecurity conference. The balance of nature, conversations, and camaraderie made it truly special, and I'm grateful for the friendships and shared sense of purpose that came from it."

"Plenty of my co-attendees have already posted, but last week's CISO Ascent trip was one for the books."

"Of all the conferences, roundtables, and dinners I've attended this year, one truly stood out: CISO Ascent. I am grateful to be a part of this community and take pride in being both a member and a strong advocate of CISO Ascent."

"I can't imagine a better place than Yellowstone to get to know such an incredible group of security leaders."

"No presentations. No vendor pitches. No slides. Turns out the best conversations I have had with peers all year happened on a trail with no signal. If you get the invite, go. Even if you are not a hiker. Especially if you are not a hiker."

"It's so refreshing to talk about security outside the conference room. Yellowstone gave 80 CISOs the space to have honest conversations, compare notes, and connect as people, not just security leaders."

"Great conversations, amazing company (many new friends) and insights. Highly recommended but also want to selfishly keep it to myself and the current community."

"Turns out some of the best cybersecurity happens offline. CISO Ascent offers scenery and space that helps us become better professionals, people, and partners."

"Some of the best conversations happen on the trails away from Zoom calls, boardrooms, and titles. You have no idea how badly I needed this."

"Eighty CISOs, out of the conference room and into the open, with the space to make real connections and talk honestly about the challenges we all carry. What stood out most was connecting not just as security leaders, but as people."

"Amazing what can happen over a few hours with no cell service. You've created something special and we are all lucky to get to experience it."

"This is the best group of people you could ask for to spend time with in the wilderness to get away from the computer and connect with your peers in nature."

"Leadership comes with peaks, valleys, and plenty of unexpected terrain. What makes the journey easier is finding people who understand the trail because they're either walking it now or have traveled it before. The best ascent is the one you make together."

"For a few days, 60+ CISOs traded the boardroom and the slide deck for trails, laughter, and real conversations. That kind of time together builds relationships that last well beyond the mountains."

"With so much noise in the market these days, getting to meet as people, without any pitches, was refreshing."

"Turns out there are few better ways to actually get to know people than hiking together all day… and then discovering their karaoke song choices at night."
